Re: [Gluster-users] cannot remove empty directory on gluster file system
Dear Mauro, I also faced this issue several times, even on a host with single brick and single volume. The solution for me was: I figured out the leftover file-names and directory-names in the brick directory. Let's suppose the file name is hiddenFile and hiddenDirectory. Afterwards, go to the corresponding path on mount directory which is related to your issue and try to remove the file and directory, i.e.: cd RECOVERY20190416/GlobNative/20190505/ rm hiddenFile rm -r hiddenDirectory I would be interested if this procedure is also working for you.

Re: [Gluster-users] cannot remove empty directory on gluster file system
You can also check if there is a process holding a file that was deleted there: lsof /tier2/OPA/archive/GOFS/RECOVERY20190416/GlobNative/20190505 If it's not that one , I'm out of ideas :) It's not recommended to delete it from the bricks , so avoid that if possible.
