Hi<br>
<br>
I've found something that works so weird I'm certain I have missed how<br>
gluster is supposed to be used, but I can not figure out how. This is my<br>
scenario.<br>
<br>
I have a volume, created from 16 nodes, each with a brick of the same<br>
size. The total of that volume thus is in the Terabyte scale. It's a<br>
distributed volume with a replica count of 2.<br>
<br>
The filesystem when mounted on the clients is not even close to getting<br>
full, as displayed by 'df'.<br>
<br>
But, when one of my users try to copy a file from another network storage<br>
to the gluster volume, he gets a 'filesystem full' error. What happened? I<br>
looked at the bricks and figured out that one big file had ended up on a<br>
brick that was half full or so, and the big file did not fit in the space<br>
that was left on that brick.<br>
<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
This is working as expected. As files are not split up (unless you are<br>
using shards) the size of the file is restricted by the size of the<br>
individual bricks.<br>

Thanks a lot for that definitive answer. Is there a way to manage this? Can you shard just those files, making them replicated in the process?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>+Krutika, xlator/shard maintainer for the answer.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

I just can't have users see 15TB free and fail copying a 15GB file. They will show me the bill they paid for those "disks" and flay me.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
