                                  rebalancing volume<br>
                                  <br>
                                  Hi all -<br>
                                  <br>
                                  I&#39;m having issues rebalancing my
                                  layout/data across a two-brick volume.<br>
                                  I&#39;m on Gluster 3.2.5.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  I&#39;m currently using a single Ubuntu
                                  10.04 machine. Both bricks reside on<br>
                                  this machine. Adding the brick went
                                  fine. Here&#39;s the volume&#39;s info:<br>
                                  <br>
                                  $ sudo gluster volume info<br>
                                  Volume Name: branch<br>
                                  Type: Distribute<br>
                                  Status: Started<br>
                                  Number of Bricks: 2<br>
                                  Transport-type: tcp<br>
                                  Bricks:<br>
                                  Brick1: system01:/gluster/brick0001<br>
                                  Brick2: system01:/gluster/brick0002<br>
                                  <br>
                                  brick0001 has a bunch of files on it,
                                  brick0002 is empty. I&#39;d like to<br>
                                  rebalance the directory layout and
                                  data onto the new brick. But strange<br>
                                  things happen when I try to do this.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  $ sudo gluster volume rebalance branch
                                  fix-layout status<br>
                                  rebalance stopped<br>
                                  $ sudo gluster volume rebalance branch
                                  fix-layout start<br>
                                  Rebalance on branch is already started<br>
                                  $ sudo gluster volume rebalance branch
                                  fix-layout status<br>
                                  rebalance stopped<br>
                                  <br>
                                  Weird! I can&#39;t seem to get this to
                                  work.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  Am I doing some wrong, or is this some
                                  other issue?<br>
                                  <br>
                                  Thanks!<br>
