Thanks, I'll have a look at that. Is there any way to divine the
brick path that those gfid files under .glusterfs used to point to?<br>

We have a distributed volume, and had a rather large (>
50TB) folder that was no longer needed. Naively, we removed
the folder from the brick instead of through the Gluster
client.<br>
<br>
You can probably see where this is going. We didn’t
actually reclaim the space because of the hard links to
.glusterfs, and now we need to figure out how to clean up.<br>
<br>
Is it sufficient to simply check whether a file under
.glusterfs has less than 2 hard links, something like:<br>
<br>
find .glusterfs -type f -links -2 -exec rm {} \;<br>
<br>
Or do we have to do something else? Any help is much
appreciated.<br>
