<div>Contemplating upgrading my proxmox clusterby a major
revision, which unfortunately basically involves
destroying and recreating each node. A major PITA.<br>

The gluster bricks are all sitting on top of ZFS, so its
easy enough to preserve their data across the reinstall, but
I will have to reinstall gluster and recreate the setup
(peers, datastore etc).<br>

I didn't understand the reason for recreating the setup. Is
upgrading rpms/debs not enough?<br>

Can I safely recreate the bricks on top of the existing
datastructure and avoid restoring/resyncing all the data
(2.5TB). I'm worried about inadvertently creating a splitbrain
problem.<br>

If its risky I can just create a empty gluster datastore, then
move the data onto one node and allow it to sync to the others
over the weekend, only 1GB Ethernet unfortunately :(<br
