Change the Number of Volumes in a Stripe

Objective

To either increase or decrease the number of volumes in a stripe that's currently being used by a running MySQL database setup.

Steps

Currently, there are no scripts published by RightScale that allow you to change the number of stripes once you've already set up your database.  The only way to change the number of stripes (e.g. from 2 to 4) would be to take a manual sql dump of the database and Initialize Master-DB contents from scratch again.
