Removing Bricks

+You can shrink volumes, as needed, while the cluster is online and +available. For example, you might need to remove a brick that has become +inaccessible in a distributed volume due to hardware or network failure. +

Note: Data residing on the brick that you are removing +will no longer be accessible; only the configuration information is +removed - you can continue to access the data directly from the brick, +as necessary. +

To remove bricks from an existing volume, perform the following +steps.

Choose from the menu, toolbar, or right click and select the + Volume and select Remove Bricks. +
If the volume is currently running, you are asked to confirm + before deleting a brick. +
+
If you wish to remove the brick permanently, click Remove + Bricks, Delete Data. +
If you wish to keep the data but remove the brick, click Remove + Bricks, Keep Data. +
The selected bricks directories will be renamed to <olddirectory>_<timestamp>. +
The Remove Brick from Volume window is displayed indicating that the + volume was deleted successfully. +
+
Click OK. +
