Gluster users - Oct 2011 - Strange problem with distributed-replicated and disk space.

Hi, we have configured a distributed replicated, but maybe I'm missing
something or the disk space is wrong.

Ok we have 6 machines: gluster01 to gluster06

I've created a replicated volume with:

gluster volume create volume01 replica 2 transport tcp gluster01:/mnt
gluster02:/mnt

Then I added to more bricks:

gluster volume add-brick volume01 gluster03:/mnt gluster04:/mnt

And on the clinet machine the disk space is now:

 gluster03:/volume01       276G  2.1G  271G   1% /mnt/gluster

(we are using 138G disks in each brick)

Then I added two more bricks:

gluster volume add-brick volume01 gluster05:/mnt and gluster05:/mnt

If I do now

gluster volume info, I have:

olume Name: volume01
Type: Distributed-Replicate
Status: Started
Number of Bricks: 3 x 2 = 6
Transport-type: tcp
Bricks:
Brick1: gluster01:/mnt
Brick2: gluster02:/mnt
Brick3: gluster03:/mnt
Brick4: gluster04:/mnt
Brick5: gluster05:/mnt
Brick6: gluster06:/mnt


But on the client after a remount I only see the same 276GB


What I'm missing where?

Regards
MV

After more analysis we have discovered that if we mount gluster in a new
client machine, this machine can see the correct disk space, but the old
cliente after various umount/mount can only see the 276GB.

Anyone knows why this occurs?
