Re: New volume with existing glusterfs data?

Hi all,

Quoting "Peter B." <pb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
I'm looking for a way to migrate an existing glusterfs volume from a KVM
client to the KVM host.
The data on the disks was written and used by glusterfs previously, so I
guess it should be possible to just use it as-is.

I've found a solution!

I've first stopped/deleted the volume. Then I followed the instructions on Joe Julian's Blog entry [1], for wiping some gluster metadata. Afterwards, I just created the volume on the KVM host normally (as if it was brand-new), pointing at the existing data folders.

Worked fine.


Regards,
Pb
