Replication manager option missing from LSFS

[robnicholson]

The replication manager option as shown in sshot-26 is missing from LSFS storage (see sshot-27). It's present on flat. It's main use is to check whether the sync and heartbeat networks are working.

Cheers, Rob.

Hmm, intriguing. I've just got my lab back after doing some low-level disk checks & benchmarking and I'm unable to repeat this. On the LSFS storage I've just created, the replication manager option is there. Will keep an eye on this.

Cheers, Rob.

Well, at least that is funny)
Thanks for noticing that, I`ll pass it to our developers

I have noticed that the replication manager option is not there whilst a node is synchronising. So in the lab, node #1 was marked as synchronised and the replication manager option is there but on node #2 which was synchronising, the option is missing. Maybe that's what I noticed before.

Any particular reason why it's not there whilst synchronising?

Cheers, Rob.

Well, if you`ll change syncchannels during sync it may cause the issues, so that is how we preventing the problems.

Okay I understand but maybe not remove the option entirely but simply grey out the "Add replica" and "Remove replica" buttons at the top (possibly add text saying function disabled during sync).

Cheers, Rob.

Well, it`s logical. I`ll let our guys know that opinion as well. Thanks!
