Hi,

We have recently upgraded our gluster to 3.2.5 and have
encountered the following error.  Gluster seems somehow
confused about one of the files it should be serving up,
specifically
/projects/philex/PE/2010/Oct18/arch07/BalbacFull_250_200_03Mar_3.png

If I go to that directory and simply do an ls *.png I get

ls: BalbacFull_250_200_03Mar_3.png: Structure needs cleaning

This is usually what happens when you have an underlying xfs file system as your backing store, and have had a failure which has shut the xfs file system down.

Have a look in dmesg for the servers, and see if xfs has shut down.

Reasons for xfs shutdown include a) bugs in xfs/kernel, b) storage device/RAID failure.

Our experience is that "b" happens far more often than "a", though "a" does happen (especially on some kernels).
