No.  I would avoid even numbers.  I would go 1 to 3 (but one is missing
initially).  Counting
active servers would give the sequence you say, but the configurations would
say first 1, then
3 and conceptually, you are moving from one server to three with no
intermediate configuraiton.

Even number cluster sizes are evil.
