One possibility could be to split the 5th brick into two different arbiter
bricks. With that you would be able to have 4 data bricks, 2 arbiter bricks
and a replica 3 volume with arbiter.

Hi,

If you want replica 3, you must have a multiple of 3 bricks.
So no, you can't use 5 bricks for a replica 3, that's one of the
things gluster can't do unfortunatly.

[Gluster-users] Sharding/Local Gluster Volumes

[Holger Rojahn]

Hi,

i ask a question several Days ago ...
in short: Is it Possible to have 5 Bricks with Sharding enabled and 
replica count 3 to ensure that all files are on 3 of 5 bricks ?
Manual says i can add any count of bricks to shared volumes but when i 
test it with replica count 2 i can use 4 bricks but not the 5th because 
it says must be 2 bricks to add...


any idea ?
