Apologies Strahill, I don’t think my question was very clear - my fault. In all the documentation on HCI that I’ve read, it clearly states the the 3 node HCI model can only be expanded in multiples of 3 nodes, i.e. 3, 6, 9, 12. I don’t know if I missed a basic explanation somewhere but is there any reason I can’t have a 5 node cluster with multiple Gluster Replica 3 volumes utilising any of the 5 nodes in the same Gluster Peer Group? Kind Regards Shimme

We do not know. Nodes 3,4,5 need to be in the same gluster network like 1,2,3 . Once you create your bricks (inode size >= 512) and mount them permanently, you can create an extra volume or expand the current volumes.
Once you have prepared the nodes, you can add them from UI.

I have a 3 node HCI setup with 2 Replica 3 volumes using nodes 1, 2 & 3 and have added 2 additional Compute nodes to this Cluster.
What is stopping me from adding nodes 4 & 5 as Gluster Peers and creating a glusterfs Replica 3 Volume using nodes 3, 4 & 5?
