Dear Stefan,
what about your expectation on upgrading the OS to CentOS 8 Stream?
Are there any advantages?
Regards,
Felix

Hi Strahli,
Thank you for the quick answer! Sorry I have to ask again: as far as
I can see, Gluster keeps all information about peers, bricks, in
/var/lib/glusterd. So if I migrate to a new OS, it seems that I have
to restore them. Or would you suggest rather to re-generate them by
repeating all "peer probe ..." and "volume brick-add ..." commands?
best wishes,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,
I would backup Gluster's dir in /etc .
You don't need to restore any configuration files after the update,
but it's good to have them backed up.
Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

Dear all,
I was wondering what is the prefered way to upgrade the server OS
(not glusterd) for a GlusterFS.
I'm running a distributed-only system (no replication) on centos
7, planning an upgrade to centos 8 stream.
I suppose a possible way is like this:
* unmount file system on all clients
* stop cluster
* copy data in /var/lib/glusterd
* upgrade all servers
* restore data in /var/lib/glusterd
Could you please advise me if:
- the files in /var/lib/glusterd are all that is needed?
- or can I regenerate these from other data?
best wishes,
Stefan
