Matt, Based on your Gluster servers configs that file is bigger than the available disk space, obviously that isn't right.
Can you send us the output of `stat y.out` taken from the Gluster mount point and from the back end of the server Gluster created the file on? I'm also going to try and reproduce the problem here on 3.1 and 3.1.1qa5. Thanks, Craig --> Craig Carl Gluster, Inc.

I should also note that on this non-production test rig the block size on both bricks is 1KB (1024) so the theoretical file size limit is 16GB. so how then did i get a file of 200GB? -matt On Nov 9, 2010, at 10:34 AM, Matt Hodson wrote: > craig et al, > > I have a 2 brick distributed 283GB gluster cluster on CentoOS 5. we > nfs mounted the cluster from a 3rd machine and wrote random junk to > a file. i watched the file grow to 200GB on the cluster when it > appeared to stop. however the machine writing to the file still > lists the file as growing. it's now at over 320GB. what's going on? > > -matt > > ------- > Matt Hodson > Scientific Customer Support, Geospiza > (206) 633-4403, Ext. 111 > http://www.geospiza.com > > > > _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list [email protected] http://gluster.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
