Hello Ravishankar,
Thanks for introducing the sharding feature to me.
It does seems to resolve the problem i was encountering earlier. But I have 1 question, do we expect the checksum of the file to be different if i copy from directory A to a shard-enabled volume?

No the checksums must match. Perhaps Krutika who works on Sharding (CC'ed) can help you figure out why that isn't the case here.

    Have anyone in the list who has tried copying file which is

    Test Scenario:

    Each replica has 1GB

    When i tried to copy file this volume, by both fuse, or nfs
    mount. i get I/O error.

    Does the mount log give you more information? It it was a disk
    full issue, the error you would get is ENOSPC and not EIO. This
    looks like something else.

    I know, we have experts in this mailing list. And, i assume, this
    is a common situation where many Gluster users may have
    encountered.  The worry i have what if you have a big VM file
    sitting on top of Gluster volume ...?

    It is recommended to use sharding
    (http://blog.gluster.org/2015/12/introducing-shard-translator/
    <http://blog.gluster.org/2015/12/introducing-shard-translator/>)
    for VM workloads to alleviate these kinds of issues.

    Any insights will be much appreciated.
