[ovirt-users] Ovirt/Gluster replica 3 distributed-replicated problem

It's strange, I've tried to trigger the error again by putting vm04 in
maintenence and stopping the gluster service (from ovirt gui) and now the
VM starts correctly. Maybe the arbiter indeed blamed the brick that was
still up before, but how's that possible?
The only (maybe big) difference with the previous, erroneous situation, is
that before I did maintenence (+ reboot) of 3 of my 4 hosts, maybe I should
have left more time between one reboot and another?
