Hi, Adding bricks to a disperse volume is very easy and same as replica volume. You just need to add bricks in the multiple of the number of bricks which you already have.
So if you have disperse volume with n+k configuration, you need to add n+k more bricks. Example : If your disperse volume is 4+2, where 2 is the redundancy count, you need to provide 6 (or multiple of 6) bricks (4+2 = 6) when you want to expand or add bricks on your volume. I have following volume - [root@apandey apandey]# gluster v info Volume Name: vol Type: Disperse Volume ID: 4826eb6e-187d-4ccc-aa89-445338ec3620 Status: Started Snapshot Count: 0 Number of Bricks: 1 x (4 + 2) = 6 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: apandey:/home/apandey/bricks/gluster/vol-1 Brick2: apandey:/home/apandey/bricks/gluster/vol-2 Brick3: apandey:/home/apandey/bricks/gluster/vol-3 Brick4: apandey:/home/apandey/bricks/gluster/vol-4 Brick5: apandey:/home/apandey/bricks/gluster/vol-5 Brick6: apandey:/home/apandey/bricks/gluster/vol-6 Options Reconfigured: transport.address-family: inet performance.readdir-ahead: on nfs.disable: on [root@apandey apandey]# Now, If I want to add bricks in this volume I have to provide bricks in the multiple of 6. It could be 6, 12,18.....

I’m trying now to set dispersed volumes to have some redundancy. I had any problem to create a functional test volume with 4 bricks and 1 redundancy ( Number of Bricks: 1 x (3 + 1) = 4 ). I had also any problem to replace a supposed faulty brick with another one. My problem is that I can not add a brick to increase the size of the volume as I do with distributed ones. I would have a volume of 5 bricks ( Number of Bricks: 1 x (4 + 1) = 5 ). The command « gluster volume add-brick test-volume 10.0.13.192:/data » return « volume add-brick: failed: Incorrect number of bricks supplied 1 with count 4 ». The documentation and Google was helpless. How can I do ? Thank for your help.
