https://docs.gluster.org for the version in use.
I never use oVirt UI for managing gluster and obviously I never checked oVirt's

Adding bricks is useful when:- using very fast storage like NVMe (please
Hi Strahil,
when you said "The Gluster documentation on the topic is quite extensive", I
wasn't quite sure, if that was mean to be ironic: you typically are not.
At the moment the only documentation I can see navigating from the

It'll be a dance, as I'm going to need to do 1 of 2 things:
- Put the host into Maintenance mode inside oVirt Engine, then intentionally
