In the *very* short term, yes. However, I think that will quickly become an issue for users who try to deploy erasure coding because those group sizes will be quite large. As soon as we implement tiering, our very next task - perhaps even before tiering gets into a release - should be to implement automatic brick splitting. That will bring other benefits as well, such as variable replication levels to handle the sanlock case, or overlapping replica sets to spread a failed brick's load over more peers. _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@gluster.org http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
