We need to remove a server node from our configuration (distributed volume). There is more than enough space on the remaining bricks to accept the data attached to the failing server; we didn’t know if
one process or the other would be significantly faster. We know shrinking the volume (remove-brick) rebalances as it moves the data; so moving 506G resuled in the rebalancing of 1.8T and took considerable time. Reading the documentation, it seems that replacing a brick is simplying introducing an empty brick to accept the displaced data, but it is the exact same process: remove-brick.
Is there anyway to migrate the data without rebalancing at the same time and then rebalancing once all data has been moved? I know that is not ideal, but it would allow us to remove the problem server much
quicker and resume production while rebalancing. Tami Tami McFarlin Greene Lab Technician RF, Communications, and Intelligent Systems Group Electrical and Electronics System Research Division Oak Ridge National Laboratory Bldg. 3500, Rm. A15 greenet@xxxxxxxx (865) 643-0401 |
