Hi Ashish,

Thank you for the update. Does that mean they're now in the regular Glusterfs? Any idea how long it typically takes the Ubuntu and CentOS packages  to be updated with the latest code?

No, for regular glusterd, work is still in progress. It will be done soon.

I don't have answer for the next question. May be Amar have information regarding this. Adding him in CC.

Hi,

I can see that Amar has already committed the changes and those are visible on https://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Administrator%20Guide/Thin-Arbiter-Volumes/

Hi Ashish,

Can someone commit the doc change I have already proposed ?
At least, the doc will clarify that fact .

Best Regards,

Hi David,

Creation of thin-arbiter volume is currently supported by GD2 only. The command "glustercli" is available when glusterd2 is running.

We are also working on providing thin-arbiter support on glusted however, it is not available right now.

Subject: Thin-arbiter questions

Hello,

We are setting up a thin-arbiter and hope someone can help with some questions. We've been following the documentation from https://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Administrator%20Guide/Thin-Arbiter-Volumes/.

1. What release of 5.x supports thin-arbiter? We tried a "gluster volume create" with the --thin-arbiter option on 5.5 and got an "unrecognized option --thin-arbiter" error.

2. The instruction to create a new volume with a thin-arbiter is clear. How do you add a thin-arbiter to an already existing volume though?

3. The documentation suggests running glusterfsd manually to start the thin-arbiter. Is there a service that can do this instead? I found a mention of one in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1579786 but it's not really documented.

Thanks in advance for your help,
