Hosed installation

[Ryan Nix <ryan.nix@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I seem to have hosed my installation while trying to replace a failed brick.  The instructions for replacing the brick with a different host name/IP on the Gluster site are no longer available so I used the instructions from the Redhat Storage class that I attended last week, which assumed the replacement had the same host name.

http://community.gluster.org/q/a-replica-node-has-failed-completely-and-must-be-replaced-with-new-empty-hardware-how-do-i-add-the-new-hardware-and-bricks-back-into-the-replica-pair-and-begin-the-healing-process/

It seems the working brick (I had two servers with simple replication only) will not release the DNS entry of the failed brick.

Is there any way to simply reset Gluster completely?  

Just to confirm, if I delete the volume so I can start over, deleting the volume will not delete the data.  Is this correct?  Finally, once the volume is deleted, do I have to do what Joe Julian recommended here? http://joejulian.name/blog/glusterfs-path-or-a-prefix-of-it-is-already-part-of-a-volume/

Thanks for any insights.

- Ryan
