Hi,

Ideally, both bricks in a replica set should be of the same size.

Ravi, can you confirm?


Yes, correct.

    Hi Serkan,

    thanks a lot for the answer.

    So, if you are correct, in a distributed with replica environment
    the best practice is to pair nodes with the smallest size together?

    For example:

    node1      1 GB
    node2     10 GB
    node3      4 GB
    node4     8 GB
    node5     15 GB
    node6     7 GB

    So:

    node1 with node3 (smallest is 1 GB)
    node4 with node6 (smallest is 7 GB)
    node2 with node5 (smallest is 10 GB)

    The command to launch:

    gluster volume create gv0 replica 2
    node1:/opt/data/gv0 node3:/opt/data/gv0 node4:/opt/data/gv0
    node6:/opt/data/gv0 node2:/opt/data/gv0 node5:/opt/data/gv0

    Right? In this way I should have 18 GB of free space on the
    mounted volume (1 GB + 7 GB + 10 GB)

        I think, gluster1 and gluster2 became a replica pair. Smallest
        size
        between them is affective size (1GB)
        Same for gluster3 and gluster4 (3GB). Total 4GB space
        available. This
        is just a guest though..
