Disk size in new node

Hi.

We are using ScaleIO and already have 4 nodes with installed 3xSSD 480GB disk on each node.

We want to add new node with 3xSSD 800GB disk.

Can we like this?

Hi Ivan,

You can do this, but it's not really recommended - SDS (or FaultSets) should be of similar size. For lab/test environment it should be OK, but you can encounter unexpected results when trying do perform certain operations; you would also need to reconsider your spare capacity.

If possible, maybe try to swap the disks around the nodes to make them more balanced.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Pawel
