That's the way I did it Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4GLTE smartphone ----- Reply message ----- From: "Shawn Welter" <swelter at pnca.edu> To: "gluster-users at gluster.org" <gluster-users at gluster.org> Subject: 2 nodes replication upgrade to 4 nodes Date: Tue, Jun 19, 2012 7:15 pm I am wondering about almost the exact same thing. I don' know about the add-brick. I know manual the notes when you list s1,s2,s3,s4 in the create volume command it will distribute across s1 and s2 then replicate to s3 and s4. This is the layout I want but currently s1 is replicated to s2. So what would happen in the process of switching s1 and s2 from rep to dist. Maybe replace brick s2 with s3 and then add brick s2 and s4? Followed but a rebalence.
