No I don't think it is load dependent. The user reported the problem again during the Christmas holiday when very few other people (if any) were using the clients or the servers.

Does that seem plausible in light of your access patterns?

We have an occasional problem that prevents deletion of certain GlusterFS
mounted files.  See the following, for example, with corresponding log file
message.

ke...@cd /glusterfs/atmos/users/kih/ECHAM5/TS4-TEMP
ke...@rm HYBRID_TEMP_207212
rm: cannot remove `HYBRID_TEMP_207212': Invalid argument

[2010-12-28 00:59:04.298331] W [fuse-bridge.c:888:fuse_unlink_cbk]
glusterfs-fuse: 3997: UNLINK() /users/kih/ECHAM5/TS4-TEMP/HYBRID_TEMP_207212
=>  -1 (Invalid argument)

The file was deleted without error on a machine where the volume was mounted
via NFS.  I have four compute servers that are using the GlusterFS client
for performance reasons.  Operating system and GlusterFS package details are
as follows.

[r...@nemo1 TS4-TEMP]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.5 (Final)
[r...@nemo1 TS4-TEMP]# uname -a
Linux nemo1.nerc-essc.ac.uk 2.6.18-194.el5 #1 SMP Fri Apr 2 14:58:14 EDT
2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[r...@nemo1 TS4-TEMP]# rpm -qa | grep -i gluster
glusterfs-fuse-3.1.1-1
glusterfs-core-3.1.1-1

Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening, other than using NFS
instead of GlusterFS client?

-Dan.
