Though I have still no idea if adding an arbiter afterwards needs rebalance or not, and as this should only write file refernce (and no data) on the arbiter, this should not touch anything on the data side. I though wanted to be sure before doing this on a production environment. The bug has been discussed in the mailing list. There are a couple of patches that went into 3.8.10 https://review.gluster.org/#/c/16749/ https://review.gluster.org/#/c/16750/ though I'm not sure this solved the problem or not. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1387878 If you look at the mailing list archive you can find more information on this. Currently I'm not using shardin, though as I'm using gluster to host VM in case of some problems to one of the hosts healing would require lots of CPU and time to recover the files. Sharding should solve this, but I'd rather wait the time for it to heal, then have to go through a restore from a backup cause there was data corruption. Any hint would really be appreciated.
