You'd not need a bidirectional probe until and unless you want to assign multiple IPs/host names to a particular peer.

_______________________________________________All:According to the docs, when you initially set up a gluster storage pool, the first two servers need to probe each other. However, after that, you add additional servers in by probing from a node that's already in the pool.However, when I follow the directions with gluster 3.8, the behavior doesn't seem to match up when I do the initial set up of two nodes. I probe from server 1 to server 2 but I do not probe from server 2 to server 1. My expectation would be that either the pool or peer commands would indicate the server 2 does not "trust" server 1 but it in fact server 2 just indicates its successfully connected in a pool and server 1 is a trusted peer.In addition, if I do a probe from server 2 to server 1, it does not just say probe success. Instead it says, "probe successful host already in peer list".So here are my questions: is this initial probe each server from the other dance actually required? And if it is, is a there a way to tell through a command or looking at a log whether that's occurred or not?https://gluster.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Administrator%20Guide/Storage%20Pools/Thanks,Joe
