Re: glusterFS 3.6.2 migrate data by remove brick command

Hi Sander,

Sorry for not getting back to you.

I guess, when you don’t use quota you do not need to run the scripts.

I do not have any experience changing the op-version on a running glusterfs cluster. But looking at some threads, it should be possible to change it on a running glusterfs cluster. But I think, only when all clients are the same version has the server.

And good luck this weekend.

Grtz, Jiri

Jiri,

thanks, I totally missed the op-version part as it’s not mentioned in the upgrade instructions as per the link you send. Actually I read that link and because I do not use quota I didn’t use that script either.

Can I update the op-version when the volume is online and currently doing a rebalance or shall I stop the rebalance, set the new op-version and then start the rebalance again?

many thanks for all the input….

Met vriendelijke groet / kind regards,

Sander Zijlstra

Hi Sander,


Then operating-version=2 is for glusterfs version 3.4, so I guess you still will be using the old style.

And don’t forget to upgrade the clients also.

Jiri,

thanks for the information, I just commented on a question about op-version…. 

I upgraded all systems to 3.6.2 does this mean they all will use the correct op-version and will not revert to old style behaviour?

Hi Sander,


  • Since version 3.6 the remove brick command migrates the data away from the brick being removed, right?
It should :)
I think this is the most complete documentation.

  • When I have replicated bricks (replica 2), I also need to do "remove brick <volume> replica 2 brick1 brick2 …. , right?
Yes, you need to remove both replica’s at the same time.


Last but not least, is there any way to tell how long a “remove brick” will take when it’s moving the data? I have dual 10GB ethernet between the cluster members and the brick storage is a RAID-6 set which can read 400-600MB/sec without any problems.

Depends on the size of the disk, the number of files and type of file. Network speed is less a issu, then the IO on the disks/brick.
To migratie data from one disk to a other (is like self-healing) GlusterFS will do a scan of all files on the disk, which can cause a high IO on the disk.

Because you had also some performance issues, when you added some bricks, I will expect the same issue with remove brick. So do this at night if possible.

LS,

I’m planning to decommission a few servers from my cluster, so to confirm:
