[Gluster-users] Replace brick of a dead node

[Rajat Chopra]

Hi!
   Seeking pardon from the experts, but I have a basic usage question that I could not find a straightforward answer to.

I have a two node cluster, with two bricks replicated, one on each node.
Lets say one of the node dies and is unreachable.
I want to be able to spin a new node and replace the dead node's brick to a location on the new node.
The command 'gluster volume replace-brick' wont work because it cant reach the source brick.

Is there a way I can achieve that without any downtime?


Thanks for the help.
