Start with:
gluster volume replace-brick myvol1 machine1:/foo machineA:/foo commit force

Then do:
  gluster volume heal myvol1 info
until it's empty which should indicate that the new brick on machineA now has a complete replica.

repeat above for machine2/B and machine3/C.

How can I replace machines in a gluster cluster with triple replication? I've had crashes and I've replaces single machines before but always with one with the same name. Now I need to take machine1, machine2, and machine3 out of the cluster and replace it with machineA, machineB, and machineC.

Gluster will not let me detach machine1 all by itself. I have to detach
machine1, machine2, and machine3 all at the same time. But is that going to cause data loss?

It seems to me that detaching all 3 machines in a brick on a triple replicated cluster would be like removing a single brick from a non-replicated cluster. And you can lose data in that case, right?
