My bricks are 2x850G and 4x11T, so I can repurpose the small bricks as arbiters with minimal effect on capacity. What would be the sequence of commands needed to: 1) Move all data off of bricks 1 & 2 2) Remove that replica from the cluster 3) Re-add those two bricks as arbiters (And did I miss any additional steps?)

I've configured 6 bricks as distributed-replicated with replica 2, expecting that all active bricks would be usable so long as a quorum of at least 4 live bricks is maintained. However, I have just found http://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Administrator%20Guide/Split%20brain%20and%20ways%20to%20deal%20with%20it/ Which states that "In a replica 2 volume...
