Sanity-hsm test_3 is failing alot:

    Error: 'could not create file'
    Failure Rate: 27.00% of last 100 executions [all branches] 

The only thing of interest I found so far is from the MDS console.
1454 error messages:

Tests after this tend to fail as well.

Another failure at: https://maloo.whamcloud.com/test_sets/aa3d4616-001d-11e3-a856-52540035b04c
This one with ZFS.

Jinshan, as you already documented in LU-3704, test_3 failures are due to ENODATA return during [cp -p /etc/passwd $TESTFILE.append || error "could not create file"] command when trying to set "system.posix_acl_access" XATTR. But why are some XATTRs part of "cp -p" work ? And in any case we may just check that file content after copy is ok in the test ?

[Jinshan Xiong (Inactive)]

There was no such information to indicate why reading acl access info failed. From the test case itself, I feel it's not necessary to use `cp -p' so changing it to `cp' would work.

This appears to be a duplicate of LU-3713

This should be fixed by LU-3669 patch http://review.whamcloud.com/7208/

[Nathaniel Clark]

This seems to be fixed now that LU-3669 has been closed.
