Hello,

i'm running ES cluster v2.4.1 over mesos in docker and I can see this differences in 4 different nodes in the same cluster, this cluster is in GREEN healthy:

> curl -s "http://$ip:$port/\_cluster/stats" | jq '.nodes.fs.total\_in\_bytes'  
> ip 10.x.y.175 port 25833  
> 3834119962624  
> ip 10.x.y.176 port 40818  
> 3834119962624  
> ip 10.x.y.177 port 40475  
> 2875589971968  
> ip 10.x.y.178 port 62766  
> 2875589971968

Why i can see different values in cluster stats?  
Should I worry about that?

Hi,

This is the report if we call every single node in his \_cluster/stats API.

carlos.portillo$ curl -s -XGET '[http://bcn1-server-178:62766/\_cluster/stats/?pretty](http://bcn1-server-178:62766/_cluster/stats/?pretty)' | grep fs -A5 | grep "total\_in\_bytes" | sed 's/.$//' | awk {' value = $3 / 1024 / 1024 /1024 ; print value'}  
**2678.1**

We don't understand why every node, reports a different cluster size.
