Re: File Size and Brick Size

Hello Ravishankar,
Thanks for introducing the sharding feature to me.
It does seems to resolve the problem i was encountering earlier. But I have 1 question, do we expect the checksum of the file to be different if i copy from directory A to a shard-enabled volume?

[xxxxx@ip-172-31-1-72 ~]$ sudo sha1sum /var/tmp/oVirt-Live-4.0.4.iso
ea8472f6408163fa9a315d878c651a519fc3f438  /var/tmp/oVirt-Live-4.0.4.iso
[xxxxx@ip-172-31-1-72 ~]$ sudo rsync -avH /var/tmp/oVirt-Live-4.0.4.iso /mnt/
sending incremental file list
oVirt-Live-4.0.4.iso

sent 1373802342 bytes  received 31 bytes  30871963.44 bytes/sec

Have anyone in the list who has tried copying file which is bigger than the individual brick/replica size?
Test Scenario:
Distributed-Replicated volume, 2GB size, 2x2 = 4 bricks, 2 replicas
Each replica has 1GB

When i tried to copy file this volume, by both fuse, or nfs mount. i get I/O error.

Does the mount log give you more information? It it was a disk full issue, the error you would get is ENOSPC and not EIO. This looks like something else.

I know, we have experts in this mailing list. And, i assume, this is a common situation where many Gluster users may have encountered.  The worry i have what if you have a big VM file sitting on top of Gluster volume ...?

It is recommended to use sharding (http://blog.gluster.org/2015/12/introducing-shard-translator/) for VM workloads to alleviate these kinds of issues.

Any insights will be much appreciated.
