The plot thickens…
I put all hosts in the cluster into maintenance mode, with the Stop Gluster 
service checkbox checked. I then deleted the /var/lib/glusterd/vols/test1 
directory on all hosts. I then took the host that the test1 volume was on out 
of maintenance mode. Then I tried to remove the test1 volume from within the 
web UI. With no luck, I got the message: Could not delete Gluster Volume test1 
on cluster 8000-1.

I went back and checked all host for the test1 directory, it is not on any 
host. Yet I still can’t remove it…

Any suggestions?

Here is an update…

I checked the /var/log/glusterfs/etc-glusterfs-glusterd.vol.log on the node 
that had the trouble volume (test1). I didn’t see any errors. So, I ran a tail 
-f on the log as I tried to remove the volume using the web UI. here is what 
was appended:

[2017-04-11 19:48:40.756360] I [MSGID: 106487] 
[glusterd-handler.c:1474:__glusterd_handle_cli_list_friends] 0-glusterd: 
Received cli list req
[2017-04-11 19:48:42.238840] I [MSGID: 106488] 
[glusterd-handler.c:1537:__glusterd_handle_cli_get_volume] 0-management: 
Received get vol req
The message "I [MSGID: 106487] 
[glusterd-handler.c:1474:__glusterd_handle_cli_list_friends] 0-glusterd: 
Received cli list req" repeated 6 times between [2017-04-11 19:48:40.756360] 
and [2017-04-11 19:49:32.596536]
The message "I [MSGID: 106488] 
[glusterd-handler.c:1537:__glusterd_handle_cli_get_volume] 0-management: 
Received get vol req" repeated 20 times between [2017-04-11 19:48:42.238840] 
and [2017-04-11 19:49:34.082179]
[2017-04-11 19:51:41.556077] I [MSGID: 106487] 
[glusterd-handler.c:1474:__glusterd_handle_cli_list_friends] 0-glusterd: 
Received cli list req

I’m seeing that the timestamps on these log entries do not match the time on 
the node.

The next steps
I stopped the glusterd service on the node with volume test1
I deleted it with:  rm -rf /var/lib/glusterd/vols/test1
I started the glusterd service.

After starting the gluster service back up, the directory 
/var/lib/glusterd/vols/test1 reappears.
I’m guessing syncing with the other nodes?
Is this because I have the Volume Option: auth allow *
Do I need to remove the directory /var/lib/glusterd/vols/test1 on all nodes in 
the cluster individually?

thanks

Hi all,
The node is oVirt Node 4.1.1 with glusterfs-3.8.10-1.el7.
On the node I can not find /var/log/glusterfs/glusterd.log However, there is a 
/var/log/glusterfs/glustershd.log
can you check if /var/log/glusterfs/etc-glusterfs-glusterd.vol.log exists? if 
yes, can you check if there is any error present in that file ?

What happens if I follow the four steps outlined here to remove the volume from 
the node BUT, I do have another volume present in the cluster. It too is a test 
volume. Neither one has any data on them. So, data loss is not an issue.
Running those four steps will remove the volume from your cluster . If the 
volumes what you have are test volumes you could just follow the steps outlined 
to delete them (since you are not able to delete from UI) and bring back the 
cluster into a normal state.

Hi Ovirt users,
I’m a newbie to oVirt and I’m having trouble deleting a test gluster volume. 
The nodes are 4.1.1 and the engine is 4.1.0

When I try to remove the test volume, I click Remove, the dialog box prompting 
to confirm the deletion pops up and after I click OK, the dialog box changes to 
show a little spinning wheel and then it disappears. In the end the volume is 
still there.
with the latest version of glusterfs & ovirt we do not see any issue with 
deleting a volume. Can you please check /var/log/glusterfs/glusterd.log file if 
there is any error present?


The test volume was distributed with two host members. One of the hosts I was 
able to remove from the volume by removing the host form the cluster. When I 
try to remove the remaining host in the volume, even with the “Force Remove” 
box ticked, I get this response: Cannot remove Host. Server having Gluster 
volume.

What to try next?
since you have already removed the volume from one host in the cluster and you 
still see it on another host you can do the following to remove the volume from 
another host.

1) Login to the host where the volume is present.
2) cd to /var/lib/glusterd/vols
3) rm -rf <vol_name>
4) Restart glusterd on that  host.

And before doing the above make sure that you do not have any other volume 
present in the cluster.

Above steps should not be run on a production system as you might loose the 
volume and data.

Now removing the host from UI should succed.


P.S. I’ve tried to join this user group several times in the past, with no 
response.
Is it possible for me to join this group?

Regards,
Andrew
