More concerningly, the files copied to the gluster shard datastores have a 
difference md5sum to the original. Thats a fatal flaw.

Subject: Shard file size (gluster 3.7.5)


Have upgraded my cluster to debian jessie, so able to natively test 3.7.5

I’ve noticed some peculiarities with reported file sizes on the gluster mount 
but I seem to recall this is a known issue with shards?

Source file is sparse, nominal size 64GB, real size 25GB. However underlying 
storage is ZFS with lz4 compression which reduces it to 16GB

No Shard:
ls –lh     : 64 GB
du –h      : 25 GB

4MB Shard:
ls –lh     : 144 GB
du –h      : 21 MB

512MB Shard:
ls –lh     : 72 GB
du –h      : 765 MB


a du –sh of the .shard directory show 16GB for all datastores

Is this a known bug for sharding? Will it be repaired eventually?
