Hey Fabricio, No it can not be done as of now. To make the volume type distributed replicate, you need to have 2 brick replicated volume and then add 2 more bricks to make it distributed replicate. The conversion from distribute to distributed-replicate volume can not be done right now. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fabricio Cannini" <fcannini at gmail.com> To: gluster-users at gluster.org Cc: "Rahul C S" <rahul at gluster.com>, "Udo Waechter" <udo.waechter at uni-osnabrueck.de> Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2011 11:12:36 PM Subject: Re: Reconfiguring volume type Hi all. > However if you have a replicate volume with count 2 already created, then > you just need to add 2 more bricks and it will automatically become a > distributed replicate volume.
