Hi,
This is the first time I have tried to expand the storage of a live gluster volume. I was able to get another supermicro storage unit for a gluster cluster that I built. The current clustered storage configuration contains five supermicro units. And the cluster volume is setup with the following configuration: node-6[/var/log/glusterfs]# gluster volume info Volume Name: researchdata Type: Disperse Volume ID: 93d4-482a-8933-2d81298d5b3b Status: Started Snapshot Count: 0 Number of Bricks: 1 x (4 + 1) = 5 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: node-1:/mnt/data/researchdata-1 Brick2: node-2:/mnt/data/researchdata-2 Brick3: node-3:/mnt/data/researchdata-3 Brick4: node-4:/mnt/data/researchdata-4 Brick5: node-5:/mnt/data/researchdata-5 Options Reconfigured: features.quota-deem-statfs: on features.inode-quota: on features.quota: on storage.fips-mode-rchecksum: on transport.address-family: inet nfs.disable: on locks.mandatory-locking: optimal Adding the node to the cluster was no problem. But adding a brick using 'add-brick' to the volume resulted in "volume add-brick: failed: Incorrect number of bricks supplied 1 with count 5". So my question is. What would be the correct amount of bricks needed to expand the storage on the current configuration of 'Number of Bricks: 1 x (4 + 1) = 5'? Without reconfiguring the volume all together. Thanks in advance for any pointers in how to expand this volume's storage capabilities. Thanks, Tbuck
