Very nice!

Any chance of a wheezy repo? ... ?

On 3.7.4, all you need to do is execute "gluster volume replace-brick
<volname> commit force" and rest will be taken care by afr. We are in
the process of coming up with new commands like "gluster volume reset-brick
<volname> start/commit" for wiping/re-formatting of the disk. So wait
just a little longer :-).

I documented this on my blog at

accurate for the latest version.

The bug report I filed for this was closed without resolution. I assume
there's no plans for ever making this easy for administrators.

Yes, its the sort of workaround one can never remember in an emergency,
you'd have to google it up ...
In the case I was working with, probably easier and quicker to do a
remove-brick/add-brick.
thanks,
