[Gluster-devel] [PATCH] Enable replica 1 mirror creation for mirrored volumes

[Anand Avati]

Joe,
  Can you shed some more light on the use case? What purpose is the
replicate translator serving without the second server? In what way is this
more beneficial than loading the replicate translator only when the second
server is introduced to the system?
