Most probably you use sharding , which splits the files into smaller chunks so
you can fit a 1TB file into gluster nodes with bricks of smaller size.So if you
have 2 dispersed servers each having 500Gb brick->? without sharding you
won't be able to store files larger than the brick size - no matter you have
free space on the other server.
When sharding is enabled - you will see on the brick the first shard as a file
and the rest is in a hidden folder called ".shards" (or something like
that).
The benefit is also viewable when you need to do some maintenance on a gluster
node, as you will need to heal only the shards containing modified by the
customers' data.

Hello,
I am the new sysadmin of an organization what uses Glusterfs.
I did not set it up, and I don't know much about Glusterfs.
What I do not understand is that I do not see all data in the mount.
Not as root, not as a normal user who has privileges.
When I do "ls" in one of the subdirectories I don't see any data,
but
this data exists at the server!
In another subdirectory I see everything fine, the rights of the
directories and files inside are the same.
I mount with something like:
/bin/mount -t glusterfs -o acl 10.8.0.1:/data /data
I see data in /data/VOORBEELD/, and I don't see any data in /data/ALGEMEEN/.
I don't see something special in /etc/exports or in /etc/glusterfs on
the server.
Is there maybe a mechanism in Glusterfs what can exclude data from
export?? Or is there a way to debug this problem?
With regards,
Paul van der Vlis
