[ovirt-users] glusterfs heal issues

[Gary Pedretty]

This is a self hosted Glusterized setup, with 3 hosts.  I have had some glusterfs data storage domains have some disk issues where healing was required.  The self heal seemed to startup and the Ovirt Management portal showed healing taking place in the Volumes/Brick tab.  Later it showed everything ok.  This is a replica 3 volume.  I noticed however that the brick tab was not showing even use of the 3 bricks and looking on the actual hosts a df command also shows uneven use of the bricks.  However gluster volume heal (vol) info shows zero entries for all bricks.  There are no errors reported in the Data Center or Cluster, yet I see this uneven use of the bricks across the 3 hosts.  

Doing a gluster volume status (vol) detail indeed shows different free disk space across the different bricks.  However the Inode Count and Free Inodes are identical across all bricks.  

I thought replica 3 was supposed to be mirrored across all nodes.  Any idea why I am seeing the uneven use, or is this just something about glusterfs that is different when it comes to free space vs Inode Count?
