Hi there.

Are there possibilities to prevent osd-split-brain in a replicated pool
with an even size? Or do you always have to make min_size big enough to
cover this?

For example a replicated pool with size 4: Do i always have to set the
min_size to 3? Or is there a way to use min_size 2 and use some other
node as a decision maker in case of split brain?

min_size doesn't arbitrate decisions other than
"can I write if there are only X visible copies?", where X needs to be > min_size
to allow writes.

It doesn't control any logic, it controls the risk level you want to take.
