Thanks a lot! I will try this asap, but before that, I have an important
question: is there any downtime on the server1 while installing the
replica on server2. Our server1 is a production server so I cannot allow
downtime.

These are the correct steps. I'll add that we did some experiments and pre-staging the data on the new brick did seem to reduce the rebuild time.

Hi Milos,
You need to follow the below steps:
1)once you identify server2, install the same version gluster packages as in server1
2) peer server2 from server1
3) do a "gluster volume add-brick <volname> replica 2 <server2 brickpath which you want as the replica pair> The syncing of files in your gluster storage will happen automatically when self-heal deamon picks up the job. If you don't want to wait, issue a "gluster volume heal <volname>
thanks,

Subject: Add new server to glusterFS (replica)
Hi All,
I have a running GlusterFS volume with one brick, the actual server1.
I purchased a 2nd server and would like to add it as replica.
Could someone propose a tutorial? Should I first sync the files between
server1 and server2? Thank you!
