Gluster users - Jun 2014 - Distributed volumes

Hi All,

I have created a distributed volume of 1 GB ,  using two bricks from two
different servers.
I have written 7 files whose sizes are a total of  1 GB.
How can I check that files are distributed on both the bricks ?


Thanks
Kumar

Hi Kumar,

You can use standard file browsing commands like "cd" and
"ls" on both
of the bricks. The volume's files will show up as regular files on the
underlying filesystem. You can manually verify that files that exist
on brick 1 do not exist on brick 2, and vica-versa.

For example, here's me running file browsing commands on my replicated
volume's brick:

mike at nostromo:/data1/brick1/gv1 :( [7] $ ls -latr
total 24
drwxr-xr-x.   3 root root 4096 Dec 19 22:21 homes
drwxr-xr-x.   3 root root 4096 May  3 17:55 ..
drw-------. 261 root root 4096 May  3 18:38 .glusterfs
drwxr-xr-x.   4 root root 4096 May  3 21:02 .
mike at nostromo:/data1/brick1/gv1 :) [8] $ sudo du -s -h homes/ .glusterfs/
[sudo] password for mike:
34G     homes/
252M    .glusterfs/

-Mike

Just do an ls on the bricks, the paths are the same as the mounted
filesystem.
