Description of problem: we do not have a rebalance process for tiered volume Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.create a tiered volume. 2.add a brick(still being worked on) 3.issue rebalance and check if rebalance actually takes place on tiered volume Actual results: there wasn't any rebalance command on tier. Expected results: rebalance should start Additional info: right from add/remove brick, the feature is not available on tiered volume. This fix will be in after the add/remove brick support is made available on tiered volume.
Patch https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/21331/ removes tier functionality from GlusterFS. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1642807 is used as the tracking bug for this. Recommendation is to convert your tier volume to regular volume (either replicate, ec, or plain distribute) with "tier detach" command before upgrade, and use backend features like dm-cache etc to utilize the caching from backend to provide better performance and functionality.
