No, you proposed a wish. A feature needs described behavior, certainly a
lot more than "it should just know what I want it to do".
I'm done. You can continue to feel entitled here on the mailing list.
I'll just set my filters to bitbucket anything from you.

I've just asked if simplifying the add brick process is something that
developers are interested to add

Fell free to ignore was gluster users has to say and still

Usually, open source project tends to follow users suggestions

Since this is an open source community project, not a
company product, feature requests like these are welcome,
but would be more welcome with either code or at least a
well described method. Broad asks like these are of little
value, imho.

Anyway, the proposed workaround:

<https://joejulian.name/blog/how-to-expand-glusterfs-replicated-clusters-by-one-server/>
won't work with just a single volume made up of 2
replicated bricks.
If I have a replica 2 volume with server1:brick1 and
server2:brick1,
how can I add server3:brick1 ?
I don't have any bricks to "replace"
This is something i would like to see implemented in
gluster.

Are you suggesting this process to be easier
through commands, rather than
for administrators to figure out how to place
the data?

Admin should always have the ability to choose
where to place data,
but something
easier should be added, like in any other SDS.
Something like:
gluster volume add-brick gv0 new_brick
if gv0 is a replicated volume, the add-brick
should automatically add
the new brick and rebalance data automatically,
still keeping the
required redundancy level
In case admin would like to set a custom placement
for data, it should
specify a "force" argument or something similiar.
tl;dr: as default, gluster should preserve data
redundancy allowing
users to add single bricks without having to think
how to place data.
This will make gluster way easier to manage and
much less error prone,
thus increasing the resiliency of the whole gluster.
after all , if you have a replicated volume, is
obvious that you want
your data to be replicated and gluster should
manage this on it's own.
Is this something are you planning or considering
for further implementation?
I know that lack of metadata server (this is a
HUGE advantage for
gluster) means less flexibility, but as there is a
manual workaround
for adding
single bricks, gluster should be able to handle
this automatically.
