Hello All ,

We were trying to setup a gerrit server with replication in k8s, have used the following resources for reference.

https://gerrit.googlesource.com/k8s-gerrit/+/refs/heads/master/helm-charts/

However, have some questions regarding the same

1. Do we have to use the same storage volumes for the replica and the main instance ?

2. Does the replica serve as a primary gerrit instance in case of failure? Or is it supposed to be a read only instance?

3. We were having some trouble replicating the instances, There were no logs in the stream printed related to replication, how to we know that the instances are being replicated?

We also tried to install the master slave configuration. Few questions about the same.

1. Are the slaves read only instances of the primary instance?

2. Do the slaves have to share the same storage volume as the primary one ?

If we have any more documentation about gerrit and gerrit replicas, pls do share with me.
