Hello everyone,
I am having trouble with a distributed volume. In short, the rebalance command does not seem to work for me: Existing files are not migrated, and new files are not created on the new brick. I am running glusterfs 3.7.6 on two servers: 1) FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE (colossus2 - 192.168.110.1) 2) CentOS 6.7 (colossus - 192.168.110.2) The bricks are zfs-backed on both servers, and the network consists of two direct-connected cat6 cables on 10gig NICs. The NICs are bonded (lagg'd) together with mode 4 (LACP). Here is what I am seeing: root@colossus ~]# gluster volume create fubar 192.168.110.2:/ftp/bricks/fubar volume create: fubar: success: please start the volume to access data [root@colossus ~]# gluster volume start fubar volume start: fubar: success [root@colossus ~]# mount -t glusterfs 192.168.110.2:/fubar /mnt/test [root@colossus ~]# touch /mnt/test/file{1..100} [root@colossus ~]# ls /mnt/test/| wc -l 100 [root@colossus ~]# ls /ftp/bricks/fubar | wc -l 100 # So far, so good. [root@colossus ~]# gluster volume add-brick fubar 192.168.110.1:/tank/bricks/fubar volume add-brick: success # For good measure, I'll do an explicit fix-layout first. [root@colossus ~]# gluster volume rebalance fubar fix-layout start volume rebalance: fubar: success: Rebalance on fubar has been started successfully. Use rebalance status command to check status of the rebalance process. ID: 2da23238-dbe4-4759-97b2-08879db271e7 [root@colossus ~]# gluster volume rebalance fubar status Node Rebalanced-files size scanned failures skipped status run time in secs --------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ------------ -------------- localhost 0 0Bytes 0 0 0 fix-layout completed 0.00 192.168.110.1 0 0Bytes 0 0 0 fix-layout completed 0.00 volume rebalance: fubar: success # Now to do the actual rebalance. [root@colossus ~]# gluster volume rebalance fubar start volume rebalance: fubar: success: Rebalance on fubar has been started successfully. Use rebalance status command to check status of the rebalance process. ID: 67160a67-01b2-4a51-9a11-114aa6269ee9 [root@colossus ~]# gluster volume rebalance fubar status Node Rebalanced-files size scanned failures skipped status run time in secs --------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ------------ -------------- localhost 0 0Bytes 100 0 0 completed 0.00 192.168.110.1 0 0Bytes 0 0 0 completed 0.00 volume rebalance: fubar: success [root@colossus ~]# ls /mnt/test/ | wc -l 101 [root@colossus ~]# ls /ftp/bricks/fubar/ | wc -l 100 # As the output shows, 100 files were scanned, but none were moved. # And for another test, I'll create 100 new post-fix-layout files [root@colossus ~]# touch /mnt/test/file{101..200} [root@colossus ~]# ls /ftp/bricks/fubar/ | wc -l 199 # And as you can see here, they were all created on the first server. The second server isn't touched at all. Not sure if this is relevant, but if I create the volume with both bricks to begin with, files are properly distributed. Thanks! Kyle |
