<br>
I'm using glusterfs 4.1<br>
<br>
I have a volume with replicas 3 arbiter 1.<br>
<br>
Is it possible to promote the arbiter to a full replica so that the volume<br>
has 3 full copies of all data.<br>
<br>
I didn't find any documentation about that, so I guess it is not possible<br>
to do, although I hope I've missed something, so perhaps somebody could<br>
hint me to the right documentation<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>
