Hello,
i have a glusterfs distributed volume and had a raid problem. after 
solving this i could start the volume and had problem with files.  now i 
want to move working files direct from one node to a new distributed 
volume. How does the linksystem works? if i have a distribute-replicate 
with factor 2, i would have 2 links for each file, correct? so in my 
case i have only 1 hardlink for each file, right? so if i move the files 
direct, the size of the .glusterfs folder will decrease, right? actually 
it seems when i move files direct, the space at all decrease too, but 
should be nearly the same, right?

Thx
Taste
