OK, then I guess I was totally confused on this point.
I'd imagined something like this would work:
node1 node2 node3
+---------+ +---------+ +---------+
| brick 1 | | brick 1 | | brick 1 |
| brick 2 | | brick 2 | | brick 2 |
| brick 3 | | brick 3 | | brick 3 |
+---------+ +---------+ +---------+
|
v
node1 node2 node3 node4
+---------+ +---------+ +---------+ +---------+
| brick 1 | | brick 1 | | brick 4 | | brick 1 |
| brick 2 | | brick 4 | | brick 2 | | brick 2 |
| brick 3 | | brick 3 | | brick 3 | | brick 4 |
+---------+ +---------+ +---------+ +---------+
any# gluster peer probe node4
any# gluster volume replace-brick volume1 node2:/gfs/2/brick
node4:/gfs/2/brick commit force
any# gluster volume replace-brick volume1 node3:/gfs/1/brick
node4:/gfs/1/brick commit force
node2# umount /gfs/2 && mkfs /dev/... && mv /gfs/2 /gfs/4 && mount
/dev/... /gfs/4 # or clean up the replaced brick by other means
node3# umount /gfs/1 && mkgs /dev/... && mv /gfs/1 /gfs/4 && mount
/dev/... /gfs/4 # or clean up the replaced brick by other means
any# gluster volume add-brick volume1 node2:/gfs/4/brick
node3:/gfs/4/brick node4:/gfs/4/brick
I guess I misunderstood you - if I decode the diagram correctly it should be
OK , you will always have at least 2 bricks available after a node get's down.
It would be way simpler if you add a 5th node (VM probably) as an arbiter and
switch to 'replica 3 arbiter 1'.
