Re: [Gluster-users] Failures during rebalance on gluster distributed disperse volume

Hi Nithya, thank you. Rabalance terminated (with a lot of failures) a few days ago. Due to some I/O errors during write operations on gluster volume, I had to re-launch fix-layout rebalance Now, fix-layouts rebalance is completed and I can write data without I/O errors. As soon as possible I

Hi Mauro, As Nithya highlighted FALLOCATE support for EC volumes went in 3.11 as part of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1454686. Hence, upgrading to 3.12 as suggested before would be a right move. Here is the documentation for upgrading to 3.12:

Hi Nithya, thank you very much for your answer. I will wait for @Sunil opinion too before starting the upgrade procedure. Since it will be the first upgrade of our Gluster cluster, I would like to know if it could be a “virtually dangerous" procedure and if it will be the risk of losing data

This looks like an issue because rebalance switched to using fallocate which EC did not have implemented at that point. @Pranith, @Ashish, which version of gluster had support for fallocate in EC? Regards, Nithya On 12 September 2018 at 19:24, Mauro Tridici wrote: > Dear All, > > I recently
