I have a question about Gluster.

I have a volume with 4 storage(replica 2):

storag1:/clusterdata

storage2:/clusterdata

storage3:/clusterdata

storage4:/clusterdata

The IP of storage1 is 192.168.56.101

The IP of storage2 is 192.168.56.102.

The name of volume is myVolume. One of these storages has been burned(storage3) and I don't have storage3 any more. I want to replace it with a new storage, for example myNewStorage(its IP is 192.168.56.110).

I would really appreciate if someone could help me how can I replace that dead brick with a new brick. I searched a lot but none of the results of google was useful.

gluster volume replace-brick VOLNAME BRICK NEW-BRICK commit force.

Check below guide for more info. You need to also make sure heal is completed after replacing it with new brick. http://www.gluster.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Gluster_File_System-3.3.0-Administration_Guide-en-US.pdf

  • Thank you Nithin. The thing is after replacing, the new server is really slow and get the replicas after around 5 mins!! do you have any idea why is it like this?! – Fariborz Mafakheri Oct 21 '15 at 08:25

The tricky thing is that I should do the gluster volume replace-brick VOLNAME BRICK NEW-BRICK commit force at new sever(myNewStorage).

But this new storage syncs with others and get the replicas very slowly!!!
