This has always been the case. A patch I had sent quite some time
back (<a href="http://review.gluster.org/#/c/8034/" target="_blank">http://review.gluster.org/#/c/8034/</a>) was eventually abandoned,
I think `volume start force` should suffice instead of adding checks
in code.<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This is exactly what I thought earlier as a workaround. The problem with this approach here is the manual intervention which users may not like to apply. I got to know from Joe Julian that this is a departure from prior behaviour and I got a feedback that we should think about having a solution where there is no manual intervention/workaround required.<br><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">

<div>However we have had concerns/bugs from different gluster
users on the availability with this configuration. So we can
solve this issue by starting the brick process(es) if quorum
is not enabled. If quorum is enabled we'd not. Although quorum
option really doesn't make sense in a two node cluster, but we
can leverage this option to get rid of this specific
situation. <br>

<div>I'd like to know your feedback on this and then I push a
patch right away.<br>
