gluster replacing a brick

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi folks,
 
Is there an easy way to shrink the size of a gluster volume by replacing some of its constituent disks, and moving the data to other constituent disks?
 
I did
 
gluster volume replace-brick <volname> <old-brick> <new-brick>
 
where both <old-brick> and <new-brick> are part of the gluster setup, but it wouldn't let me do this complaining that:
 
Brick: <new-brick> not available. Brick may be containing or be contained by an existing brick.
 
Can I remove the new-brick, wipe off the gluster artifacts [the trusted.XXX parameters], and then do the replace-brick? Will that cause any data loss?
 
Thanks,
Hari
