Hi,

As stated in another thread, we currently have a 3 nodes cluster with sharding 
enabled used for storing VM disks.
I am migrating that to a new 3.7.11 cluster to hopefully fix the problems with 
had friday, but since those 3
nodes are nearly full we'd like to expand.

We have 3 nodes with a replica 3. What would be better, go to 5 nodes and use a 
replica 2 (so "wasting" one node),
or go to 6 nodes with still a replica 3 ? Seems like having 3 replicas is 
better for safety, but can someone confirm
that whats important for quorum is the number of bricks in a replica set, not 
the number of nodes total ?
Would hate to get into a split brain because we upgraded to an even number of 
node.

Thanks,
