[Gluster-users] Using glusterd for changing number of replicas

Hi. I'd like to know, how I can increase number of replicas in replicated volume using glusterd, on the fly. I haven't managed to do this using existing commands. For example: - there is replicated volume with 2 nodes and i need to add 3rd replica - or there is one-node volume and i need to
