Re: FreeBSD: I can't replace-bricks - Distributed-Replicate

[Pranith Kumar Karampuri <pkarampu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

hi Jan,
         Are you doing this as part of erasing the underlying disk(which we call as reset brick) or replacing the complete brick with a new brick?
If it is replacing and not resetting, considering you are using 3.7.6 version you can use the CLI directly without all these steps.

Just use single command "gluster volume replace-brick <volname> <old-brick> <new-brick> commit force"

We never tested it on FreeBSD though, may be it is a good idea to try this out in a test environment and do it on your production setup. This code does get executed on NetBSD regressions, not sure if that is good enough for FreeBSD.

+Anuradha,

       Could you update readthedocs documentation with the release details after which just executing replace-brick is good enough? As per git log v3.7.3 has your patch.

I'm stuck with setfattr. I'm using FreeBSD, so I use setextattr instead.

root@gluster01:/mnt/fuse # setextattr system wheel abc /mnt/fuse setextattr: /mnt/fuse: failed: Operation not supported

root@gluster01:/mnt/fuse # glusterd --version
