The file count is same between them..but the file size varies.

For example, assume node1 has issue and node2 is clean.

1. On both nodes file count is 76
2. File size varies for some of them

Each files are either 1GB or 2GB and some or them are 1.2gb or 1.5gb or
between 1-2gb ....by looking at files..
In the problematic node, some of the 1gb files in node2 shows 2GB in
node1...and also file size differences. making the difference.
