I used only once the brick replace function when I wanted to change my Arbiter (v3.12.15 in oVirt 4.2.7) and it was a complete disaster.<br>
Most probably I should have stopped the source arbiter before doing that, but the docs didn't mention it.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thus I always use reset-brick, as it never let me down.</p>

You may give it a try, but I guess you need your new brick to have same amount of space (or more).<br>
<br>
Maybe someone more experienced should share a more sound solution.<br>
