Gluster users - Dec 2009 - How to distribute the data uniformly among all the servers

Hi, there

I've configured a glusterfs 2.0.7 implementation with around a hundred
servers, for log backup.

Now, it seems that the data distribution varies a lot among the servers. A
few servers get a 90%+ disk usage, while others get a disk usage around
20%-30%. and the total usage of glusterfs volume is around 50%.

This problem really bothers me a lot... Is it common and is there anything I
can do to handle this?

Looking for help~!!!

Hi Lingyi,
glusterfs 2.0.7 is pretty old one and this issue was fixed in later versions.You
can try version 3.0 ,that should work for you.
Let us know,in case of any issues.

Cheers,
Lakshmipathi.G
