Hi everyone, I have found a similar question in the ML but didn't find the answer I wanted. My situation is the following : We have 2 existing data storage unit with 72TB each, with 10TB left. Currently these storage unit are synced using rsync periodically. We want to tansform these 2 nodes into glusterfs bricks without loosing any data or deleting a node. I was thinking setting up the 2 nodes with glusterfs in replica this way : 1) Rsync server1/brick1 and server2/brick2 content 2) Create the gluster replica and start : gluster volume create volume1 replica 2 transport tcp server1:/brick1 server2:/brick1 gluster volume start volume1 Then, should I run a healing process, or stat each files in order to self heal ? What happens if there is a slight difference between the 2 nodes, mathematically if : server1/brick1= server2/brick1+delta Will the delta part impact server1, or will it be lost ? Maybe I worry for nothing, but as these 2 nodes host important data, I wanted to make sure that eveything is OK. Thanks for your help ! --
