There was such discussion, a while back on the mailing list. Interesting thing I could remember was that with 2x replica, you can have some nasty surprise when doing node upgrades/restarts. -----Original Message----- To: ceph-users Subject: about replica size Hi, As we all know, the default replica setting of 'size' is 3 which means there are 3 copies of an object. What is the disadvantages if I set it to 2, except I get fewer copies?
