[Gluster-users] question about replicate volume

[songxin]

Hi all,
I have a question about replicate volume as below.


precondition：
1.A node ip: 128.224.162.163
2.B node ip:128.224.162.255
3.A node brick:/data/brick/gv0
4.B node brick:/data/brick/gv0


reproduce step:
1.gluster peer probe 128.224.162.255                                                                                   //run on A node
2.gluster volume create gv0 128.224.162.163:/data/brick/gv0 force                                     //run on A node
3.gluster volume start gv0                                                                                                     //run on A node
4.mount -t glusterfs 128.224.162.163:/gv0 gluster                                                                //run on A node
5.create some file(a,b,c) in directory gluster                                                                         //run on A node
6.gluster volume add-brick gv0 replica 2 128.224.162.255:/data/brick/gv0 force                  //run on A node
7.create some file(d,e,f) in directory gluster                                                                           //run on A node
8.mount -t glusterfs 128.224.162.163:/gv0 gluster                                                                //run on B node
9.ls gluster                                                                                                                             //run on B node


My question is as below.


After step 6, the volume type is change from distribute to replicate.
The file (a,b,c) is created when the volume type is distribute.
The file (d,e,f) is created when the volume type is replicate.


After step 6, does the volume will replicate the file (a,b,c) in two brick?Or it just replicate the file(d,e,f) in two brick?
If I run "gluster volume heal gv0 full", does the volume will replicate the file (a,b,c) in two brick?


Thanks,
Xin
