Hi Yuko,

     Dispersed and distribute disperse volumes are Erasure Coded volume. 
I am not sure how to explain the difference, but same logic of how we 
differentiate replicate and distribute replicate applies here too. As of 
now we do not support add / remove brick for these two type of volumes 
in ovirt.

Thanks
kasturi.
