Reducing replica count by removing a brick from

AFAIR, there was an issue where vm's were going to
paused state when reducing the replica count and
increasing it to 3. Not sure if this still holds good
with the latest release. <br>

<div>We have a new server with the same hard disk size of
other two node, so, why not? Why join the cluster as an
arbiter when we can have the same disk capacity to add

</span> To move arbiter role to a new <span

class="il">node</span> to maintenance , <span
class="il">add</span> new <span class="il">node</span>
and replace old brick with new brick. You can follow
the steps below to do that.<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>Move the <span class="il">node</span> to be
replaced into Maintenance mode</li>
<li>Prepare the replacement <span class="il">node</span></li>
<li>Prepare bricks on that <span class="il">node</span>.</li>
<li>Create replacement brick directories</li>
<li>Ensure the new directories are owned by the vdsm
user and the kvm group.</li>
<li># mkdir /rhgs/bricks/engine</li>
<li># chmod vdsm:kvm /rhgs/bricks/engine</li>
<li># mkdir /rhgs/bricks/data</li>
<li># chmod vdsm:kvm /rhgs/bricks/data</li>
<li>Run the following command from one of the
healthy cluster members:</li>
<li># <span class="il">gluster</span> peer probe
<new_node></li>
<li> <span class="il">add</span> the new host to the
cluster.</li>
<li><span class="il">Add</span> new host address to
<span class="il">gluster</span> network</li>
<li>Click Network Interfaces sub-tab.</li>
<li>Click Set up Host Networks.</li>
<li>Drag and drop the glusternw network onto the IP
address of the new host.</li>
<li>Click OK</li>
<li>Replace the old brick with the brick on the new
host</li>
<li>Click the Bricks sub-tab.</li>
<li>Verify that brick heal completes successfully.</li>
<li>In the Hosts tab, right-click on the old host
and click Remove.</li>
<li>Clean old host metadata</li>
<li># hosted-engine --clean-metadata
--host-id=<old_host_id> --force-clean</li>
</ul>

<div>I need this (reads: I need the arbiter role) if I
reduce replica count then I add the new node as full
replica and increasing replica count again to 3? (As you
expained above)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
</div>

</blockquote>
Above steps hold good if you want to move the arbiter role to a
new node.<br>
<br>
If you want to move to full replica, reducing the replica count
will work fine but increasing it again back to 3 might cause vm
pause issues.<br>
</blockquote>
So, please poweroff your vms while performing this.<br>
