[Moosefs-users] odd under-goal files

[Dr. M. J. C. <mj...@av...>]

Hi,

I have one export on my moosefs system:

[root@xena ~]# mfsgetgoal -r /fileserver2
/fileserver2:
  files with goal        2 :               204781
  directories with goal  2 :                13023

As you can see, all files have a goal=2 setting.

However, the cgi "info" page shows that 215 files exist with a goal=1 
and have 0 valid copies. I've been playing with different disks (adding 
and removing), to debug some speed issues, and perhaps something became 
botched along the way. (I probably should have prefixed the disks with 
the "*" marker and waited before pulling them out of the system.) I 
don't think I've lost any "real" files, however - probably metadata or 
trash.

How do I determine what these goal=1 files are, since they don't seem to 
be reported on my mount (by mfsgetgoal -r)? Should I worry about them? 
Will they be purged from the system over time?

Thanks for any advice...

- Mike
