[Gluster-users] No space left on device

Is there a way around this other than moving files away from this one 
brick by hand?

Yes, eg. user_a had the following directories
server5:/storage/5/user_a
server6:/storage/6/user_a

Then we performed a move:
ssh server5 "mv /storage/5/user_a/ /storage/5/cluster/user_a"
ssh server6 "mv /storage/6/user_a/ /storage/6/cluster/user_a"

This was done as it would not cause any network traffic. Then the volume 
was created like that:
Brick1: 192.168.101.249:/storage/4/cluster
Brick2: 192.168.101.248:/storage/5/cluster
Brick3: 192.168.101.250:/storage/6/cluster
Brick4: 192.168.101.247:/storage/7/cluster
Brick5: 192.168.101.246:/storage/8/cluster

Regards,
Daniel
