Hi, I have a Gluster volume with 20 servers. The volume is setup with a replica of 2. Each server has 1 brick on it, so in essence I have 20 bricks, 10 of which are a replica of the other 10. One of the servers had a bad hard drive and the brick on the server stopped responding. This caused writes to the Gluster volume to slow down. I am under the impression that one brick crashing should not have a problem, not sure why writes slowed down? Any clue here? Secondly, in order to restore the brick, I had to remote 2 bricks or 2 servers, since I had setup the volume with a replica of 2. For removing the 2nd brick, I picked a server randomly, is that ok? I was afraid I would have picked a server that is the replica of the bad server and then I would lose data. Lastly, do I need to heal the volume after removing both bricks? What happens to the data on the bricks? I am using Gluster 3.6 Thank you _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
