Unable to delete file on GFS2 filesystem in a RHEL 5 or 6 Resilient Storage cluster

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • I can not remove a file on GFS2, and fsck.gfs2 does not fix it.
  • Attempts to remove a file located on GFS2 filesystem fail, but a 'cp' and 'vi' against the file are successful:
# cp file1.xml file1.xml.bak
# rm file1.xml
rm: remove regular file `file1.xml'? y
rm: cannot remove `file1.xml': No such file or directory

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 or 6 with the Resilient Storage Add On
  • GFS2
