<p>No, you proposed a wish. A feature needs described behavior,
certainly a lot more than "it should just know what I want it to
do".<br>

<p>I'm done. You can continue to feel entitled here on the mailing

Anyway, the proposed workaround:<br>

won't work with just a single volume made up
of 2 replicated bricks.<br>
If I have a replica 2 volume with
server1:brick1 and server2:brick1,<br>
how can I add server3:brick1 ?<br>
I don't have any bricks to "replace"<br>
<br>
This is something i would like to see
implemented in gluster.<br>

Are you suggesting this process to be
easier through commands, rather than<br>
for administrators to figure out how to
place the data?<br>

Admin should always have the ability to
choose where to place data,<br>
but something<br>
easier should be added, like in any other
SDS.<br>
<br>
Something like:<br>
<br>
gluster volume add-brick gv0 new_brick<br>
<br>
if gv0 is a replicated volume, the add-brick
should automatically add<br>
the new brick and rebalance data
automatically, still keeping the<br>
required redundancy level<br>
<br>
In case admin would like to set a custom
placement for data, it should<br>
specify a "force" argument or something
similiar.<br>
<br>
tl;dr: as default, gluster should preserve
data redundancy allowing<br>
users to add single bricks without having to
think how to place data.<br>
This will make gluster way easier to manage
and much less error prone,<br>
thus increasing the resiliency of the whole
gluster.<br>
after all , if you have a replicated volume,
is obvious that you want<br>
your data to be replicated and gluster
should manage this on it's own.<br>
<br>
Is this something are you planning or
considering for further implementation?<br>
I know that lack of metadata server (this is
a HUGE advantage for<br>
gluster) means less flexibility, but as
there is a manual workaround<br>
for adding<br>
single bricks, gluster should be able to
handle this automatically.<br>
