creating a volume with an already populated folder

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I reply  to myself to share the experience.

BoxA had an already populated /export folder.

I installed BoxB and gluster 3.2 on both boxes.

I created a replicated volume

I mounted this volume from a client

On the  client cd  /mountpoint and then   du

Box B /export started to populate

Thank you
