Is this a Test Only requirement - or are there changes needed for initial deployment as well?

While adding the set of bricks to the volume, there is a additional info pops up,
stating, its advised to have new volume created. This is misleading.

The exact statement goes like this:
"Expanding gluster volume in a hyper-converged setup is not recommended as it could lead to degraded performance. To expand storage for cluster, it is advised to add additional gluster volumes.

Are you sure you want to continue?"

We should remove such warning note.

https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/72883/ is the patch that added this warning. Kaustav, can you remove this?
Comment 2 Sahina Bose 2019-03-26 08:29:09 UTC 
This is needed as we now support expansion of gluster volumes. Retargeting
Comment 3 SATHEESARAN 2019-03-29 19:10:16 UTC 
Tested with ovirt-engine-4.3.3

When adding brick from RHV Manager UI, there are no warnings pops up
