Hi Milos, You need to follow the below steps: 1)once you identify server2, install the same version gluster packages as in server1 2) peer server2 from server1 3) do a "gluster volume add-brick <volname> replica 2 <server2 brickpath which you want as the replica pair> The syncing of files in your gluster storage will happen automatically when self-heal deamon picks up the job. If you don't want to wait, issue a "gluster volume heal <volname> thanks, nag pavan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Miloš Čučulović - MDPI" <cuculovic@xxxxxxxx> To: gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, 2 December, 2016 9:38:55 PM Subject: Add new server to glusterFS (replica) Hi All, I have a running GlusterFS volume with one brick, the actual server1. I purchased a 2nd server and would like to add it as replica. Could someone propose a tutorial? Should I first sync the files between server1 and server2?
