I got a strange respond

[sasharevzin]

Does anybody know what the error mean: "I fail at picking lvols :("

here is my respond:

HTTP 500: Response body: {"error":{"message":"I fail at picking lvols :(","type":"DfsException"}}
vendor/bundle/ruby/1.9.1/gems/koala-1.4.1/lib/koala/api.rb:56:in `api'

It means three things:

• someone at Facebook has a sense of humor
• you've encountered some really weird, strange edge case I've never seen
• I have a new all-time favorite FB error message

Are you able to reproduce it or was it transient?

No, it's not something that always happen :-/

strange...

I assume lvolvs means "logical volumes". It would also make sense for a photo upload process to be dealing with distributed storage systems. But it's still an amusing error message.
