Okay, just tried it in 3.9 Even though
attaching a non arbiter volume (say a replica-2 ) as hot-tier is
succeeding at the CLI level, the brick volfiles seem to be
generated incorrectly (I see that the arbiter translator is
getting loaded in one of the replica-2 bricks too, which is
incorrect). I'd recommend not to use arbiter for tiering
irrespective of hot or cold tier.

originally saw some references on the Redhat storage packaged

about a possible incompatibility I assumed it just meant that
the hot tier
itself couldn't be an arbiter volume.
I was tripped up by the change in
apparent
support for the cold tier between 3.9 and 3.10. But maybe that
was just
a fixed oversight which never should have worked in the first
place?

Arbiter and Hot Tier
Hi Walter,
Yes, arbiter volumes are currently not supported with tiering.

I've been googling this to no avail so
apologies
if this is explained somewhere I missed.
Is there a known incompatibility between using arbiters and hot
tiering?
Experience on 3.9
Original volume - replica 3 arbiter 1
Attach replica 2 arbiter 1 hot tier - failure
Attach replica 3 hot tier - success
Experience on 3.10
Original volume - replica 3 arbiter 1
Attach replica 2 arbiter 1 hot tier - failure
Attach replica 3 hot tier - failure
Attach hot tier without specifying replica - success but comes
in as a
distributed tier which I would assume totally negates the point
of having
a replicated cold tier?
The specific error message I get is "volume attach-tier: failed:
Increasing
replica count for arbiter volumes is not supported."
