You could do this - where Node3 & Node 2 also has arbiter bricks. Arbiter bricks only store metadata and requires very low storage capacity compared to the data bricks.
Node1 Node2 Node3 Node4 brick1 brick1 arb-brick arb-brick brick1 brick1
Ok, cool! And this won't pose any problem if Node2 or Node4 fail?
No.
The syntax shuld be this:
gluster volume create data replica 3 arbiter 1 node1:/brick node2:/brick node2:/arb_brick node3:/brick node4:/brick node4:/arb_brick
Correction: arb_bricks should be from a different node as below: gluster volume create data replica 3 arbiter 1 node1:/brick node2:/brick node3:/arb_brick node3:/brick node4:/brick node2:/arb_brick
is not a problem having more than a brick on the same host for the volume create syntax?
Thanks again
