Hi,

AFR has a requirement that when replica count is changed while adding bricks to 
a volume, e.g., converting a replica 2 to replica 3, afr pending xattrs are 
marked to indicate this change. (To prevent potential data-loss)

This is possible only when the volume is not stopped, which is a deviation from 
the present behaviour that allows add-brick even when the volume is stopped. I 
sent a patch : http://review.gluster.org/#/c/12451/ , if this change is 
included, only such add-brick operations that change replica count will be 
forbidden when the volume is stopped. I would like to know if there are any 
objections to this.

Anuradha.
