[Gluster-users] Change arbiter brick mount point

[Strahil Nikolov]

I think that replace-brick is not the recommended way to do it... yet it's not a bad one.

I would do the following.
1. gluster volume remove-brick VOL replica 2 Arbiter:/path/to/brick force
If you want to reuse the block device , just:
2. umount /path/to/brick && mkfs.xfs -f -i size=512 /dev/arbiter/disk
3. mount /dev/arbiter/disk /new/path/to/brick

Next just add the brick:
gluster volume add-brick VOL replica 3 arbiter 1 Arbiter:/new/path/to/brick


In both cases (the reset-brick and remove/add-brick) you need to work with a fresh new brick .

Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

Hi Andreas,

Only step 5 should be enough. Remounting would only be required, when all the bricks change their destination.
