[Gluster-users] # of replica != number pf bricks?

[Juan José Pavlik Salles]

According to the docs (Link
<http://gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Gluster_3.1:_Configuring_Distributed_Replicated_Volumes>)
"The number of bricks should be a multiple of the replica count for a
distributed replicated volume.". What I understand is that creating a
replica 2 volume with 3 bricks should not work, but I haven't really tried
it.

Regarding to quorum, unfortunately, I've got no experience with it.
