YesSahina, I mean replication of files when volume is of replicated type
(in my case distributed replicated)

OK, eventuallt I'm going to try this way.
Do you think it would work if without dns at all for a test
environment I set up this way

mgmt lan 192.x
gluster network 10.x

server hostnames involved
engine
node01
node02

In /etc/hosts of engine

192.xxx engine
192.yyy node01
192.zzz node02

In /etc/hosts of nodes
192.xxx engine
10.yyy node01
10.zzz node02

and accordingly in sysconfig files of nodes for their hostnames/ip bindng

And when I preconfigure gluster on nodes I use on node01 the command
gluster peer probe node02
