We have a replica 2 volume and we have issue with setting proper quorum.</p>

The volumes used as datastore for vmware/ovirt, the current settings for the quorum are:</p>

Losing the first node which hosting the first bricks will take the storage domain in ovirt offline but in the FUSE mount point works fine "read/write"</p>

Losing the second node or any other node that hosts only the second bricks of the replication will not affect ovirt storage domain i.e 2nd or 4th ndoes.</p>

As i understand, losing the first brick in replica 2 volumes will render the volume to read only, but how FUSE mount works in read write ?</p>
<p dir="auto" style="text-align:left;margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:25px;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:11pt;color:black;background-color:white">
Also, can we add an arbiter node to the current replica 2 volume without losing data ? if yes, does the re-balance bug "Bug 1440635" affect this process ?</p>
<p dir="auto" style="text-align:left;margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:25px;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:11pt;color:black;background-color:white">
And what happen if we set "cluster.quorum-type: none" and the first node goes offline ? <br>
