Hi Eco, thanks for your help.

If I run on brick 1:
mount -t glusterfs gluster-data:/gdata /gdata

it mounts but appears as a 18 GB partition with nothing in it.


I can mount it from the client, but again, there is nothing in it.



Before upgrade this was a 50 TB gluster volume. Was that volume information 
lost with upgrade?

The file structure appears intact on each brick.


Steve

Steve,

The volume is a pure distribute:

> Type: Distribute
In order to have files replicate, you need
1) to have a number of bricks that is a multiple of the replica count,
e.g., for your three node configuration, you would need two bricks per
node to set up replica two. You could set up replica 3, but you will
take a performance hit in doing so.
2) to add a replica count during the volume creation, e.g.
`gluster volume create <vol name> replica 2 server1:/export server2:/export

>From the volume info you provided, the export directories are different
for all three nodes:

Brick1: gluster-0-0:/mseas-data-0-0
Brick2: gluster-0-1:/mseas-data-0-1
Brick3: gluster-data:/data


Which node are you trying to mount to /data? If it is not the
gluster-data node, then it will fail if there is not a /data directory.
In this case, it is a good thing, since mounting to /data on gluster-0-0
or gluster-0-1 would not accomplish what you need.
To clarify, there is a distinction to be made between the export volume
mount and the gluster mount point. In this case, you are mounting the
brick.
In order to see all the files, you would need to mount the volume with
the native client, or NFS.
For the native client:
mount -t glusterfs gluster-data:/gdata /mnt/<gluster mount dir>
For NFS:
mount -t nfs -o vers=3 gluster-data:/gdata /mnt/<gluster mount dir>


Thanks,

Eco
