Hi there, I have configured 3 node cluster(`pxc 8.0`) ,all the nodes are online. I am restoring a backup on node2 i.e pxc2 (executed),but the` wsrep_received_bytes` is less on node 2 when compared to node 1 & 3. I believe when executed or restored, it should restore on node2 initially and execute on the other nodes i.e 1& 3. Is anything wrong? ``` mysql@pxc1 > show status like 'wsrep_received_bytes%'; +----------------------+-----------+ | Variable_name | Value | +----------------------+-----------+ | wsrep_received_bytes | 804386321 | +----------------------+-----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql@pxc2 > show status like 'wsrep_received_bytes%'; +----------------------+--------+ | Variable_name | Value | +----------------------+--------+ | wsrep_received_bytes | 329680 | +----------------------+--------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql@pxc3 > show status like 'wsrep_received_bytes%'; +----------------------+-----------+ | Variable_name | Value | +----------------------+-----------+ | wsrep_received_bytes | 804882043 | +----------------------+-----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) ``` ---

Hi @ca1990 - thanks for posting! How did you restore a backup on node2, was this a logical backup that you took using mysqldump or mydumper? That means a restore uses INSERT statements, which will execute on node2 and then be replicated to node1, node3. This will be recorded in wsrep\_received\_bytes on node1, node3 because they are the two nodes receiving the wsrep traffic. You’ll find wsrep\_sent\_bytes is significantly higher on node2 vs node1, node3. ---

@Michael_Coburn this is a physical backup ,which includes database structure and data …etc
