[Gluster-users] [EXT] Renaming a brick.

[Olaf Buitelaar]

Hi Tom,

I think you could use the replace-brick sub-command; like: "gluster volume
replace-brick <vol> <host>:/bricks/0/gv01
 <host>:/bricks/0/abc-gv01  commit force"
see;
https://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Administrator-Guide/Managing-Volumes/#replace-brick

Kind regards,

Olaf
