Issue/Introduction

How can you change the replication count from an existing space using the admin CLI?

Resolution

There is no way to alter the replication degree for a space while the Metaspace is up and running and the space defined. You have to drop the space and re-define it or shut the metaspace down and redefine the space after you have restarted it.

If you have persistence for the space (shared nothing or shared all) there should be no problem recovering the data from the persistence files after re-defining it with a new replication degree.
