Re: [Gluster-devel] List of files on a failed glusterfsd node

[Amar S. Tumballi]

Hi Majied,
 Currently there is no method (ie, tools in glusterfs) to find the list of
files which were present in the 'down' node. It was our goal to get some
management tools with glusterfs, but due to changed priorities, it got
postponed.

For hackers: One can try to find a hack by editing unify's lookup() to get
this list though.

Regards,
Amar
