hi,

although there is a related section in the documentation of gluster 3.3,
i do not see this really working. removing a brick will just remove data
on a brick which is not what i want. and migrating means replacing the
brick with a new one which does not result in a shrunken volume.

is there a way to shrink a volume online without loosing any data in the
means of reducing the number of bricks a volume is distributed over?
