We have a gigabit ethernet lan on which there is no other traffic and I am getting the following numbers when I do a remove-brick. The sequence of steps is that I create a 2 way replicated volume, populate it with 300 files totalling 100MB. I then add a pair of bricks to the volume and then a remove-brick on the original two bricks. Is this the expected speed for the operation or could there be an issue? The only problem that I suspect is that the rebalance log for the volume has the following kind of line for each file so I dont know if this check is slowing down the process: [2013-11-06 11:36:29.307612] I [dht-rebalance.c:860:dht_migrate_file] 0-v1-dht: completed migration of /file299 from subvolume v1-replicate-0 to v1-replicate-1 [root at s5n9 ~]# gluster volume remove-brick v1 s5n9.testing.lan:/data/v1 s5n10.testing.lan:/data/v1 status Node Rebalanced-files size scanned failures skipped status run-time in secs --------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ------------ -------------- localhost 300 100.1MB 600 0 completed 600.00 s6n12.testing.lan 0 0Bytes 0 0 not started 0.00 s6n11.testing.lan 0 0Bytes 0 0 not started 0.00 s5n10.testing.lan 0 0Bytes 301 0 completed 2.00
