Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand quorum size and fault tolerance

    Quorum size is the minimum nodes needed to keep the queue available.
  2. Step 2: Calculate minimum quorum for 2 node failures

    With 5 nodes, to tolerate 2 failures, quorum size = 5 - 2 = 3.
  3. Final Answer:

    3 -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Minimum quorum = total nodes - tolerated failures [OK]
Quick Trick: Quorum size = total nodes minus tolerated failures [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Setting quorum size equal to total nodes
  • Choosing quorum size less than needed for majority
  • Confusing quorum size with replication factor
