[Gluster-users] Increasing replica count from 2 to 3

If someone has experience to share in this area, i'd be grateful.  I have
an existing distributed replicated volume, 2x16.

We have a third server ready to go.  Redhat docs say just run add brick
replica 3, then run rebalance.

The rebalance step feels a bit off to me.  Isn't some kind of heal
operation in order rather than rebalance?

No additional usable space will be introduced, only replica count increase
from 2 to 3.

Thanks
Jackie
