[Gluster-users] Add new server to glusterFS (replica)
Hi Milos, You need to follow the below steps: 1)once you identify server2, install the same version gluster packages as in server1 2) peer server2 from server1 3) do a "gluster volume add-brick <volname> replica 2 <server2 brickpath which you want as the replica pair> The syncing of files in your gluster storage will happen automatically when self-heal deamon picks up the job. If you don't want to wait, issue a "gluster volume heal <volname> thanks, nag pavan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Milo? ?u?ulovi? - MDPI" <cuculovic at mdpi.com> To: gluster-users at gluster.org Sent: Friday, 2 December, 2016 9:38:55 PM Subject: [Gluster-users] Add new server to glusterFS (replica) Hi All, I have a running GlusterFS volume with one brick, the actual server1. I purchased a 2nd server and would like to add it as replica. Could someone propose a tutorial? Should I first sync the files between server1 and server2?

These are the correct steps. I'll add that we did some experiments and pre-staging the data on the new brick did seem to reduce the rebuild time. -----Original Message----- From: gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org [mailto:gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org] On Behalf Of Nag Pavan Chilakam Sent: Friday, December 02, 2016 8:42 AM To: Milo? ?u?ulovi? - MDPI <cuculovic at mdpi.com> Cc: gluster-users at gluster.org Subject: Re: [Gluster-users] Add new server to glusterFS (replica) Hi Milos, You need to follow the below steps: 1)once you identify server2, install the same version gluster packages as in server1 2) peer server2 from server1 3) do a "gluster volume add-brick <volname> replica 2 <server2 brickpath which you want as the replica pair> The syncing of files in your gluster storage will happen automatically when self-heal deamon picks up the job.
