reset brick is another way of replacing a brick. this usually helpful, when you want to replace the brick with same name. You can find the documentation here https://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/release-notes/3.9.0/#introducing-reset-brick-command.

In your case, I think you can use replace brick. So you can initiate a reset-brick start, then you have to replace your failed disk and create new brick with same name . Once you have healthy disk and brick, you can commit the reset-brick.


Let's know if you have any question,

Hello Martin,

look here:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_gluster_storage/3.4/pdf/administration_guide/Red_Hat_Gluster_Storage-3.4-Administration_Guide-en-US.pdf
on page 324. There is a manual how to replace a brick in case of a hardware failure

    Hi all,

    I am running replica 3 gluster with 3 bricks. One of my servers
    failed - all disks are showing errors and raid is in fault state.

    Type: Replicate
    Volume ID: 41d5c283-3a74-4af8-a55d-924447bfa59a
    Status: Started
    Number of Bricks: 1 x 3 = 3
    Transport-type: tcp
    Bricks:
    Brick1: node1.san:/tank/gluster/gv0imagestore/brick1
    Brick2: node2.san:/tank/gluster/gv0imagestore/brick1 <— this brick
    is down
    Brick3: node3.san:/tank/gluster/gv0imagestore/brick1

    So one of my bricks is totally failed (node2). It went down and
    all data are lost (failed raid on node2). Now I am running only
    two bricks on 2 servers out from 3.
    This is really critical problem for us, we can lost all data. I
    want to add new disks to node2, create new raid array on them and
    try to replace failed brick on this node.

    What is the procedure of replacing Brick2 on node2, can someone
    advice? I can’t find anything relevant in documentation.

    Thanks in advance,
    Martin
