Hi Thx for your help. I finaly could add the last brick . I now have a Distributed-replicated volume > gluster volume info > > Volume Name: dccbackup > Type: Distributed-Replicate > Status: Started > Number of Bricks: 2 x 2 = 4 > Transport-type: tcp > Bricks: > Brick1: mysqldccbackup:/export > Brick2: mysqldccbackupmirror:/export > Brick3: gfsbrick1:/brick1 > Brick4: gfsbrick2:/brick2 On the client side though I don't see any increasing in storage size. I tried to rebalance gluster volume rebalance dccbackup fix-layout start and got . > starting rebalance on volume dccbackup has been unsuccessful I'm kind of stuck here.
