Had a quick thought. Would a gluster volume command to remove all of the xattr's from a brick be useful? e.g. "sudo gluster volume clear /path/mybrick1" It would remove all Gluster xattr's on the brick, letting it be used in a new volume. Pretty much exactly what we're giving people manual directions for, with setfattr -x [xattrs here] /path/mybrick1. Except people commonly have problems with the setfattr approach, so we end up having to step them through it manually on IRC until it works. Worthwhile? (note, "clear" was a first idea for a reasonable name, can be anything. :>)
I would expect this to be an option to the remove brick command. You would never do this, without removing the brick from the volume.If there is no volume, then I would expect it to be manual steps, as it is today.
