Hello,

   what I regularly do:
1) Create a snapshot (btrfs) of Brick
2) reassemble the snapshots into an new (Snapshot-) Gluster-Volume

When Reassembling the snapshots I have to remove all xattr's and .gluster-Directory. Since btrfs is painfully slow in deleting, I would prefer an option to reuse the Content, wich should be valid for the new (Snapshot-) Gluster-Volume...

Greetings,
Jörg

OK, again I'll ask: what is a typical scenario for me as a gluster
admin to delete a volume and want to add one (or more) of its former
bricks to another volume and keep that data in tact? I can't think of
a real world example. But I assume they exist as this is the model
taken by gluster..
