Once that job was done i shut down Gluster, moved all the missing files off the raw bricks into temp storage, and then i restarted Gluster and copied all the files back into each directory. That fixed the missing file problems.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Id still like to find out why Gluster would ignore certain files without the correct attributes. Even removing all the file attributes wouldn't fix the problem. I also tried manually coping a file into a brick which it still wouldn't find. It would be nice to be able to manual copy files into a brick, then set an extended attribute flag which would cause gluster to see the new file(s) and copy them to all bricks after a ls -alR was done. Or even better just do it automatically when new files without attributes are found in a brick.</div>

<div><br></div><div>This volume has over 40 million files and directories so it can be very tedious to find <span style="border-collapse:collapse;font-family:Arial;white-space:pre">anomalies.

An fd leak and a lock structure leak has been fixed in the git<br>
