Rebalancing after adding larger bricks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

We have a 2 node, distributed replicated setup (11 bricks on each node).  Each of these bricks are 6TB in size.

node_A:/brick1 replicates node_B:/brick1
node_A:/brick2 replicates node_B:/brick2
node_A:/brick3 replicates node_B:/brick3
node_A:/brick11 replicates node_B:/brick11

We recently added 5 more bricks to make it 16 bricks on each node in total.  Each of these new bricks are 8TB in size.

We completed a full rebalance operation (status says “completed”).

However the end result is somewhat unexpected:
/dev/sdl1 7.3T 2.2T 5.2T 29%
/dev/sdk1 7.3T 2.0T 5.3T 28%
/dev/sdj1 7.3T 2.0T 5.3T 28%
/dev/sdn1 7.3T 2.2T 5.2T 30%
/dev/sdp1 7.3T 2.2T 5.2T 30%
/dev/sdc1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%
/dev/sdf1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 43%
/dev/sdo1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%
/dev/sda1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 43%
/dev/sdi1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%
/dev/sdh1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 43%
/dev/sde1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%
/dev/sdb1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%
/dev/sdm1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%
/dev/sdg1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%
/dev/sdd1 5.5T 2.3T 3.2T 42%

The df output in bold are the new 8TB drives.
Was I wrong to expect the % usage to be roughly equal?  Is there some parameter I need to tweak to make rebalance account for disk sizes properly?

I’m using Gluster 3.8 on Ubuntu.

Thanks,
Jackie
