2007/6/27, Shai DB <address@hidden>:

after copying some few thousands files and deleting and copying again
i get a lot of errors:
File descriptor in bad state
No such file or directory

and a lot of
[Jun 26 05:45:13] [CRITICAL/tcp.c:81/tcp_disconnect()]
transport/tcp:server:
connection to server disconnected
[Jun 26 05:45:13] [ERROR/common-utils.c:55/full_rw()]
libglusterfs:full_rw:
0 bytes r/w instead of 113 (errno=9)

in the glusterd.log

I have set it up like this:

1.3-pre4

5 servers + 5 clients (running on same boxes as servers).
what could cause the disconnection ?

server:

volume gfs
  type storage/posix
  option directory /mnt/gluster/gfs1

  type storage/posix
  option directory /mnt/gluster/afr-gfs1

option listen-port 6996
  subvolumes gfs gfs-afr
  option auth.ip.gfs.allow *
  option auth.ip.gfs-afr.allow *
end-volume


client:
volume gfs
  type storage/posix
  option directory /mnt/gluster/gfs1
end-volume

volume gfs-afr
  type storage/posix
  option directory /mnt/gluster/afr-gfs1
