Will gluster even allow that? I did bit of testing of this some time ago. Not with the lastest Gluster mind you... You can have different size bricks in a volume but you should always have the same size bricks in a replica. You say that there's enough space and no space will be consumed after etc and in theory this could work. But I wouldn't certainly recommend this kind of setup. v > > regards, > John > > _______________________________________________ > Gluster-users mailing list > Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx > http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users -- Regards Viktor Villafuerte Optus Internet Engineering t: 02 808-25265 _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
