Hi,

I upgraded an installation of GlusterFS on Ubuntu 14.04.3 from version
3.4.2 to 3.8.5.
Few hours after the upgrade, I noticed files in "split-brain" state. I
never had split-brain files in months of operation before, with the old
version.

Using htop, I observed the "glusterfs" process jumping from 0% to 100+% CPU
usage every now and then.
Using iostat, I confirmed there is no bottleneck on the local disks (util
is well below 10%)

Inspecting the logfiles, it looks like clients are losing connection quite
often:

[2016-11-14 16:34:56.685349] C
[rpc-clnt-ping.c:160:rpc_clnt_ping_timer_expired] 0-gv0-client-1: server
X.X.X.62:49152 has not responded in the last 42 seconds, disconnecting.
[2016-11-14 16:35:47.690348] C

X.X.X.219:49153 has not responded in the last 42 seconds, disconnecting.

[rpc-clnt-ping.c:160:rpc_clnt_ping_timer_expired] 0-gv0-client-7: server
X.X.X.62:49153 has not responded in the last 42 seconds, disconnecting.

There are a total of 6 servers with 2 bricks each (Distribute-Replicate)

The result of a 60 second gluster volume profile can be seen here:

After upgrading, I set:

cluster.granular-entry-heal yes
cluster.locking-scheme granular

I now reverted to no/full to see if files are still going "split-brain".

Best regards
