Re: Expanding a replicated volume

[Curro Rodriguez <curro@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have exactly the same proble that Sjors, but with 13TB of production data, I tried the same steps and still not synced, I don't know if detach the new brick copy the data and after add the brick could be a fast and clean solution.

Also I am doing the du -hc but It is too slow or not working I am not sure.

Thanks you for your help.

Regards.

At this point, /local/glustertest/stor1 is still filled on mallorca, and empty on hawaii (except for .glusterfs). Here is the actual question: how do I sync the contents of the two?

I found another way:  by doing a `du -hc /stor1` on mallorca, all files instantly appear on hawaii as well. Bizarrely, this only works when running `du` as root on Mallorca; running it as another user does give the correct output but does not make the files appear on Hawaii.

AFAIK there are two ways you can trigger the self-heal

1. Use the gluster CLI "heal" command. I'm not sure why it didn't work for you and needs to be investigated.

2. Running 'stat' on files on gluster volume mountpoint, So if you run stat on the entire mountpoint, the files should be properly synced across all the replica bricks.

*my two cents*

Cheers,
