I have glusterfs (v6.6) deployed with 3-way replication used by ovirt (v4.3).
I recently updated 1 of the nodes (now at gluster v6.7) and rebooted. When it
came back online, glusterfs reported there were entries to be healed under the
2 nodes that had stayed online.
After 2+ days, the 2 nodes still show entries that need healing, so I'm trying
to determine what the issue is.
The files shown in the heal info output are small so healing should not take
long. Also, 'Gluster v heal <vol>' and 'gluster v heal <vol> full' both return
successful, but the entries persist.
So first off, I'm a little confused by what gluster volume heal <vol> info is
reporting.
The following is what I see from heal info:
# gluster v heal engine info

Repo0 and repo1 were not rebooted, but repo2 was.
Since repo2 went offline I would expect when it came back online it would have
entries that need healing, but based on the heal info output that's not what it
looks like, so I'm thinking maybe heal info isn't reporting what I think it is
reporting.
*When gluster volume heal <vol> info reports entries as above, what is it
saying?
>From the above output, I was reading it as repo0 has 2 entries that need to be
>healed from the other bricks and repo1 has 2 entries that need healing from
>the other bricks. However, that doesn't make sense since repo2 was the one
>that was rebooted and a 'stat' on the files in the bricks show repo2 is the
>older version (checksums also show repo0 and repo1 match). Trying to access
>the file through the FUSE mount on any node gives input/output errors.

So it looks like a split brain issue according to the log message.
However,
*Why doesn't heal info show a split brain condition?
*Why does the logs for repo1 not have anything concerning
ceb42742-eaaa-4867-aa54-da525629aae4.meta?
*If repo0 and repo1 match, why is there a split brain issue?
'Gluster peer status' on each node shows connected to each of the other 2 nodes.
'Gluster volume heal engine info' on each node shows each brick is connected.
'Gluster status engine' on each node shows all 3 bricks as online, all 3
self-heal daemons as online, all 3 bitrot daemons online, and all 3 scrubber
daemons online.
