Hi Brian, Could you please restart glusterd and try again rebalancing.

I'm on Gluster 3.2.5. I'm currently using a single Ubuntu 10.04 machine. Both bricks reside on this machine. Adding the brick went fine. Here's the volume's info: $ sudo gluster volume info Volume Name: branch Type: Distribute Status: Started Number of Bricks: 2 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: system01:/gluster/brick0001 Brick2: system01:/gluster/brick0002 brick0001 has a bunch of files on it, brick0002 is empty. I'd like to rebalance the directory layout and data onto the new brick. But strange things happen when I try to do this. $ sudo gluster volume rebalance branch fix-layout status rebalance stopped $ sudo gluster volume rebalance branch fix-layout start Rebalance on branch is already started $ sudo gluster volume rebalance branch fix-layout status rebalance stopped Weird! I can't seem to get this to work. Am I doing some wrong, or is this some other issue? Thanks! - brian _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users at gluster.org http://gluster.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
