Hi, all, I've searched through the archives and saw that this has come up before, but it was not clear what the best way was to accomplish this. I'm currently on 3.2.3 and would like to convert a two-brick distribute volume to a four-brick disribute-replicate volume. Would editing the vol file directly by encapsulating the bricks I want to replicate in the replicate translator, then encapsulating that in the distribute translator be the way to go, then ls -RA to trigger a self-heal ? Is there a way to do this from the gluster console command? Thanks, -Brian Brian Smith Senior Systems Administrator IT Research Computing, University of South Florida 4202 E.
