Thanks guys.

I guess my questions was mostly an effort to try an understand how the ring reference affects local mounts.

If eg. two disks are mounted as:

/dev/sda1 as /srv/node/disk1
/dev/sdb1 as /srv/node/disk2

If these are then umount and mounted as:

/dev/sdb1 as /srv/node/disk1
/dev/sda1 as /srv/node/disk2

What will happen? Will the disks be resynced according to some reference in the ring or will they just continue to work with there respective objects/accounts/containers that are already stored on them?

Mvh / Best regards
