spinning disk for your metadata. We're fortunate enough to have all flash for our metadata and I tend to take it for granted some times :)<br>

took somewhat recently before the restripe? Maybe an internaldump in /tmp/mmfs somewhere?</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="">Hi All,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""> I added some NSDs to an existing filesystem and ran mmrestripefs. I was sort of curious to see what the distribution looked like before and after the restripe. Is there any way of looking at it?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="">Cheers,</p>
