[Gluster-users] increasing capacity

[ron ramos]

Hi All,

My disks are running out of space and need to increase, would it be
possible if i add a new disk. then add it as a new brick.
then once all the files are synched i can remove the old brick? i am
currently running a replicated volumes on 2 servers. e.g.

mygluster volume has:

Brick1:  server1:/glusterdisk1
Brick2:  server2:/glusterdisk2

i will add 2 new bricks

Brick3:  server1:/newglusterdisk1
Brick4:  server2:/newglusterdisk2

once brick3 and brick4 are synched. i will remove Brick1 and Brick2.

is this the proper way? any other better way?

Regards,
Ron
