Regarding changing of volume type, you can do it post upgrade, by using 
add-brick command as per your  requirement. I have pasted a example here 
I changed the volume from distributed to distributed-replicate.

# gluster v info

Volume Name: patchy
Type: Distribute
Volume ID: 3b02338f-949b-459c-9c13-fd4c63d91d31

Number of Bricks: 2
Transport-type: tcp
Bricks:
Brick1: dhcp159-54/bricks/patchy-b11
Brick2: dhcp159-54:/bricks/patchy-b12

features.quota: on

[root at dhcp159-54 ~]# gluster v add-brick patchy replica 2 
dhcp159-54:/bricks/patchy-b13 dhcp159-54:/bricks/patchy-b14
volume add-brick: success

[root at dhcp159-54 ~]# gluster v info
