8.5. Resolving Conflicts

The hooks are displayed in the Gluster Hooks sub-tab of the Cluster tab. Hooks causing a conflict are displayed with an exclamation mark. This denotes either that there is a conflict in the content or status of the hook across the servers in the cluster, or that the hook script is missing in one or more servers. These conflicts can be resolved via the console. The hooks in the servers are periodically synchronized with engine database and the following conflicts can occur for the hooks:
  • Content Conflict - the content of the hook is different across servers.
  • Status Conflict - the status of the hook is different across servers.
  • Missing Conflict - one or more servers of the cluster do not have the hook.
  • Content + Status Conflict - both the content and status of the hook are different across servers.
  • Content + Status + Missing Conflict - both the content and status of the hook are different across servers, or one or more servers of the cluster do not have the hook.
