<div>In order to have a healthy volume, you need to have
bricks as factors of 4. Which means if you have 4 bricks
and want to extend your setup with additional brick, then
you will need 4 other bricks in your cluster, for your
setup.<br>
<br>
</div>
I don't recommend to host more than one brick on a host as
it would cause data loss on failure of the node, if your
master and redundant copy is stored on the same host. <br>

Yes I understand. But You can understand and I hope that the
gluster team can understand, that if I want to expand my
computational power and storage I can't buy four node In one time,
it's to heavy.<br>
Another example, I have a big cluster with 14 node stripe 7. I can't
by 14 other nodes to expand it in one time. It's a big limitation in
the flexible usage of glusterfs.<br>
<br>
Does that mean that glusterfs is only dedicated to small cluster ?<br>
<br>
Sincerely.<br>
