One can do migrating of data within the existing bricks while 
remove-brick by below command:

'gluster volume remove-brick <VOLNAME> <BRICK> start'

You can give more than 1 brick if needed. Also to check what is 
happening, you can do below

'gluster volume remove-brick <VOLNAME> <BRICK> status'

Please wait for 3.3.0beta3, or else, even try later qa releases, 
3.3.0beta2 doesn't have this feature.
