Problem: In an arbiter volume configuration SHD will not send any writes onto the arbiter brick even if there is data pending marker for the arbiter brick. If we have a arbiter setup on the geo-rep master and there are data pending markers for the files on arbiter brick, SHD will not mark any data changelog during healing. While syncing the data from master to slave, if the arbiter-brick is considered as ACTIVE, then there is a chance that slave will miss out some data. If the arbiter brick is being newly added or replaced there is a chance of slave missing all the data during sync. Fix: If there is data pending marker for the arbiter brick, send truncate on the arbiter brick during heal, so that it will record truncate as the data transaction in changelog.

Testing
GlusterFS source contains some functional tests under tests/ directory. All
these tests are run against every patch submitted for review. If you want your
patch to be tested, please add a .t test file as part of your patch submission.
You can also submit a patch to only add a .t file for the test case you are
aware of.
To run these tests, on your test-machine, just run ./run-tests.sh. Don't run
this on a machine where you have 'production' glusterfs is running, as it would
blindly kill all gluster processes in each runs.
If you are sending a patch, and want to validate one or few specific tests, then run a single test by running the below command.
bash# /bin/bash ${path_to_gluster}/tests/basic/rpc-coverage.t
You can also use prove tool if available in your machine, as follows.
bash# prove -vmfe '/bin/bash' ${path_to_gluster}/tests/basic/rpc-coverage.t
