No. 
A. It must be an odd number. (otherwise no majority possible)
B. You cannot add online. 

You will need to bounce the cluster (or at least the fence driver) to move to 
the new array

Subject:        [Veritas-ha] Coordinator disks

Hi,

Does anybody know how many coordinator disks the coordinator disk  
group can have? The VCS installation guide says 3, but doesn't say if  
more is supported.

We currently have 3 coordinator disks configured for a VCS 5.0 MP1  
cluster with IO fencing enabled. We will need to shutdown the array  
where the coordinator disks reside for temporarily (for a few days).  
So I am thinking if I can add another three coordinator disks from  
another array to the coordinator disk group. This way the coordinator  
disk group would still have 3 available coordinator disks while the  
original three are down. Would this work? Or what's the best way to  
deal with this situation?

Thanks,

Rongsheng
