[Gluster-devel] Question about disk space

[Amar S. Tumballi]

Yep,
 i agree with krishna, AFR is not visible to usr. It should happen in
background, so why the user should be aware of all the 3 or 2 replicated
copies? For a user, if he writes 1MB, he wants to see 1MB as used space. So,
showing the sizeof the first server is better idea. (or even size of
smallest is good too).
