Ok, will stay with 2:2 or 3:2 so once 1 host goes down it can go to the other active host.

Any of 2+2 or 4+2 will work with your set-up and tolerate one (!) host failure with continued RW access and two host failures with RO (!) access. To tolerate 2 host failures with RW access, you need m=3, which is probably a bit much with 6 hosts.

Hi, Thinking to have 2:2 so I can tolerate 2 hosts loss, but if I just want to tolerate 1 host loss, which one better, 3:2 or 4:1?
