I have used remove-brick+add-brick on a replica volume. Yet, for large bricks that could be a pain due to the ammount of data that has to be synced.<div id="yMail_cursorElementTracker_1619061495384"><br></div><div id="yMail_cursorElementTracker_1619061495599">Best Regards,</div><div id="yMail_cursorElementTracker_1619061499425">Strahil Nikolov<br><div id="yMail_cursorElementTracker_1619061444879"> <br> <blockquote style="margin: 0 0 20px 0;"> <div style="font-family:Roboto, sans-serif; color:#6D00F6;"> <div>On Wed, Apr 21, 2021 at 19:47, Schlick Rupert</div><div><Rupert.Schlick@ait.ac.at> wrote:</div> </div> <div style="padding: 10px 0 0 20px; margin: 10px 0 0 0; border-left: 1px solid #6D00F6;"> <div id="yiv3523213834">
