...is unavoidable. Is there a general case solution for this problem? Is something planned to deal with this problem? I can only think of a few specific corner case solutions. Another problem that comes to mind is ensuring that the older slower servers don't act as bottlenecks to the whole pool. jdarcy had mentioned that gluster might gain some notion of tiering, to support things like ssd's in one part of the volume, and slow drives at the other end. Maybe this sort of architecture can be used to solve the same problems. Thoughts and discussion welcome. Cheers, James -------------- next p...

Hi, I operate a distributed replicated (1:2) setup that looks like this: server1:bigdisk,server1:smalldisk,server2:bigdisk,server2:smalldisk replica sets are bigdisk-bigdisk and smalldisk-smalldisk. This setup will be extended by another set of four bricks (same setup) within the next few days, and I could make those into another volume entirely, but I'd prefer not to, leaving me with more

Hi I'm using Gluster 3.2.5. After expanding a 2x2 Distributed-Replicate volume to 3x2 and performing a full rebalance fuse clients log the following messages for every directory access: [2012-03-08 10:53:56.953030] I [dht-common.c:524:dht_revalidate_cbk] 1-bfd-dht: mismatching layouts for /linux-3.2.9/tools/power/cpupower/bench [2012-03-08 10:53:56.953065] I

Hi, We have recently upgraded our gluster to 3.2.5 and have encountered the following error. Gluster seems somehow confused about one of the files it should be serving up, specifically /projects/philex/PE/2010/Oct18/arch07/BalbacFull_250_200_03Mar_3.png If I go to that directory and simply do an ls *.png I get ls: BalbacFull_250_200_03Mar_3.png: Structure needs cleaning (along with a listing

I do not mean to be argumentative, but I have to admit a little frustration with Gluster. I know an enormous emount of effort has gone into this product, and I just can't believe that with all the effort behind it and so many people using it, it could be so fragile. So here goes. Perhaps someone here can point to the error of my ways. I really want this to work because it would be ideal

Dear All- There are a lot of the following type of errors in my client and NFS logs following a recent volume expansion.

Hi Folks, I find myself trying to expand a 2-node high-availability cluster from to a 4-node cluster. I'm running Xen virtualization, and currently using DRBD to mirror data, and pacemaker to failover cleanly. The thing is, I'm trying to add 2 nodes to the cluster, and DRBD doesn't scale. Also, as a function of rackspace limits, and the hardware at hand, I can't separate
