[Gluster-users] Keeping it Simple replication for HA

Gluster users,

I am looking to implement GlusterFS on my network for large, expandable,
and redundant storage.

I have 5 servers with 1 brick each.  All I want is a simple replication
that requires at least 3 of the 5 bricks have a copy of the data so I can
lose any 2 bricks without data loss.  I have tried replica 3 with 5 bricks
but it seems to complain that my # of bricks must be a multiple of of my
replica count.

There a simple replication method like replica=3 with 5 bricks with
glusterfs?  Is there a better or different technology I can use for this?

Thanks,
Aaron
