Something similiar to a global hotspare. if Gluster detects some SMART issues (lot of reallocation, predictive failures and so on) can bring the hotspare in action, starting to replace the almost-failed disks. If disk fails totally during the replace, healing should start from a middle point and not from start (as some data were already synced automatically) by using the "spare" disk as automatic replacement. _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
