The replace-brick you did, mentioned in the previous mails was correct and fine. You said you have different names for old and new brick, so it works. setfattr is *not* required in this case. In the above case that you have quoted, I'm talking when brick names have to be the same (if you have that requirement). There were 2 setfattrs that were needed. Anyway, sorry about the confusion. As brick names are different, it doesn't affect your testcase. > -- Thanks, Anuradha. _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
