You can setup your bricks in such way , that each host has at least 1 brick. For example: Server A: VOL1 - Brick 1 Server B: VOL1 - Brick 2 + VOL 3 - Brick 3 Server C: VOL1 - Brick 3 + VOL 2 - Brick 2 Server D: VOL2 - brick 1
The most optimal is to find a small system/VM for being an arbiter and having a 'replica 3 arbiter 1' volume.

You might have to roll out your own GlusterFS storage solution. Someone with more Gluster/HCI knowledge might know better.
