Shrink gluster logical volume under Ovirt 4.0

Hi all I need to shrink/reduce the size of a gluster logical volume under Ovirt 4.0. Is there anything I should be aware of before reducing the file system and logical volume on my servers? I ask because I see under "df -h" the following; 192.168.3.10:data 5.7T 3.4G 5.7T 1% /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/192.168.3.10:data The storage domain is not connected yet via oVirt manager, well at least it isnt showing. Im running in hosted mode converged. Thanks in advance -- Ian Neilsen Mobile: 0424 379 762 Linkedin: http://au.linkedin.com/in/ianneilsen Twitter : ineilsen

Are you shrinking the gluster volume by removing bricks, or are you shrinking the underlying LV/filesystem of the bricks associated with gluster volume? If latter, you need to move storage domain to maintenance and umount from all hosts. On Thu, Mar 9, 2017 at 4:56 AM, Ian Neilsen <ian.neilsen@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Sahina I was shrinking the underlying LV/filesystem of bricks associated with the gluster volume. Im successfully all the way through doing this now. I place cluster into global maintenance and went about resizing the lv/filesystem for each server. I think it's working. :-) Thanks for the reply Ian On 9 March 2017 at 16:44, Sahina Bose <sabose@redhat.com> wrote:
