Hi,
I eventually installed three Debian unstable machines, so I could
install the GlusterFS 3.3 beta3.
I have a question about the self-heal daemon.
I'm trying to get a volume which is replicated, with two bricks.
I started up the volume, wrote some data, then killed one machine, and
then wrote more data to a few folders from the client machine.
Then I restarted the second brick server.
At this point, the second server seemed to "self-heal" enough that it
registered the new directories, but all the files inside were
zero-length.
I then ran the command:
gluster volume heal testvol
After I ran that, there was some activity, and now all the files were
populated.
Was that supposed to happen automatically, eventually, or am I missing
something about how the self-heal daemon works?
The self-heal daemon triggers a crawl once every 600 seconds. If you
wait out that interval, you should be able to see self-heals happening
automatically. Else you can trigger it explicitly the way you did.
Regards,
Vijay
