<div>Currently each of 3 nodes is on a 6 disk (WD Red 1TB)
raidz6 (zil on mirrored ssd), which I am thinking is more

to one by one change them to basically raid10 letting it heal

<div>Is best way to do that a systemctl stop glusterd, should I
just kill the brick process to simulate a brick dying, or is
their an actual brick maintenance command? <br>

Just kill (-15) the brick process. That'll close the TCP connections
and the clients will just go right on functioning off the remaining
replica. When you format and recreate your filesystem, it'll be
missing the volume-id extended attributes so to start it you'll need
to force it:<br>
<br>
gluster volume start $volname start force<br>

<div>If /etc/glusterfs is unchanged and /var/lib/glusterd is
unchanged will doing a heal full after reboot or restarting
glusterd take care of everything if I recreate the expected
brick path first?</div>
</div>

<br>
Once started, perform a full heal to re-replicate.<br>

<div>Are the improvements in 3.8 for sharding significant enough
I should first look at updating to 3.8.2 when released in few
days?</div>

<br>
Yes.<br>
