On 3.7.4, all you need to do is execute "gluster volume replace-brick <volname> commit force" and rest will be taken care by afr. We are in the process of coming up with new commands like "gluster volume reset-brick <volname> start/commit" for wiping/re-formatting of the disk. So wait just a little longer :-).

Nope.

    Number of Bricks: 1 x 2 = 2
    Transport-type: tcp
    Bricks:
    Brick1: questor:/tmp/foo1.1
    Brick2: questor:/tmp/foo1.2


    Status of volume: test

[root@questor]# kill 20825
[root@questor]# rm -rf /tmp/foo1.1
[root@questor]# mkdir /tmp/foo1.1
[root@questor]# gluster volume replace-brick test commit force
Usage: volume replace-brick <VOLNAME> <SOURCE-BRICK> <NEW-BRICK> {commit force} [root@questor]# gluster volume replace-brick test questor:/tmp/foo1.1 questor:/tmp/foo1.1 commit force volume replace-brick: failed: Brick: questor:/tmp/foo1.1 not available. Brick may be containing or be contained by an existing brick
This is exactly the case that will be covered with "gluster volume reset-brick <volname> start/commit"

    I documented this on my blog at

    which is still accurate for the latest version.

    The bug report I filed for this was closed without resolution. I
    assume there's no plans for ever making this easy for
    administrators.

Yes, its the sort of workaround one can never remember in an emergency, you'd have to google it up ...

In the case I was working with, probably easier and quicker to do a remove-brick/add-brick.

thanks,
