>From glusterfs list. Can you please check this and give me a feedback? "Are they hitting the setting introduced in 4.0 that limits the # of
hardlinks per file? [1] To check if that is true, the brick logs should contain the log message [2] when they hit this option induced limit. Also, inspection of "Links" output for the file in question would help determine how many links it already has. If it is local-FS specific, they may hit this message instead [3]. Although, it could be an incarnation of the extended attribute size that we store hard link names for GFID backpointers as in this bug [4]. This should not occur on XFS (which is what the user is reporting as being used), but useful to keep in check.
