Hi, Yes you can do that. - Make sure "gluster volume heal <volname> info" is zero. - Remove the arbiter brick using the command "gluster volume remove-brick <volname> replica 2 <host:path-of-arbiter-brick>" - Add a new brick of same size as of the other 2 data brick using the command "gluster volume add-brick <volname> replica 3 <host:new-brick-path>" - heal info should become zero after some time (depends on the amount of data needs to be replicated to the new brick)
