Hi, Last week I upgraded one of my gluster clusters (3 hosts with bricks as replica 3) to 3.6.4 from 3.5.4 and all seemed well.
Today I am getting reports that locking has failed: gfse-cant-01:/var/log/glusterfs# gluster volume status Locking failed on gfse-rh-01.core.canterbury.ac.uk. Please check log file for details. Locking failed on gfse-isr-01.core.canterbury.ac.uk. Please check log file for details.

I am wondering if this is a new feature due to 3.6.4 or something that has gone wrong. Restarting gluster entirely (btw the restart script does not actually appear to kill the processes...) resolves the issue but then it repeats a few minutes later which is rather suboptimal for a running service. Googling suggests that there may be simultaneous actions going on that can cause a locking issue. I know that I have nagios running volume status <volname> for each of my volumes on each host every few minutes however this is not new and has been in place for the last 8-9 months that against 3.5 without issue so would hope that this is not causing the issue. I am not sure where to look now tbh.
