Re: Problems repairing volume

[Curro Rodriguez <curro@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello Kevin,

I think you can't rebalance because you are not using a distributed gluster, you are using replicated gluster instead, I had a similar problem some time ago, and It is supposed that gluster self-heal will sync the replicas.

You can trigger the heal with:

gluster volume heal nmd full

Anyway after reading and googling a lot one member told me that we could resync fast if you do

find -exec stat {} \;

on a mounted client. This solution wasn't the ideal but started to resync faster than heal-self. Still slow 5MB/s but better than nothing.

I am starting with glusterfs too, but I am sure someone could help you better than me.

Kind regards.

Curro Rodríguez.

I lost one of my bricks and attempted to rebuild it.  I did not understand what I was doing and created a mess.  I'm looking for guidance so that I don't create a bigger mess.

I believe that the gluster mount is relatively simple.  It's a 2 brick replicated volume (gluster01 & gluster02).  I lost gluster02 and attempted to replace it.  Now that it is replaced, the files do not seem to match what is on the brick that I did not loose.  I would like to repair these bricks and then add more storage capacity to the volume.

Below is the output of the `df -h`, `gluster peer status`, and `gluster volume info` for each of the servers.  I'm concerned by the `gluster peer status` and `gluster volume rebalance nmd status` commands.

Any help is vastly appreciated.
