I can't answer all of these, but I think the only way to share existing files is to create a new volume with sharding enabled and copy the files over into it.<div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Laura B<br><br>On Friday, March 31, 2017, Alessandro Briosi <<a href="mailto:ab1@metalit.com">ab1@metalit.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi I need some advice.<br>

I'm currently on 3.8.10 and would like to know the following:<br>
<br>
1. If I add an arbiter to an existing volume should I also run a rebalance?<br>
2. If I had sharding enabled would adding the arbiter trigger the<br>
corruption bug?<br>
3. What's the procedure to enable sharding on an existing volume so that<br>
it shards already existing files?<br>
4. Suppose I have sharding disabled, then add an arbiter brick, then<br>
enable sharding and execute the procedure for point 3, would this still<br>
trigger the corruption bug?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
