Deployment Architecture

What should we do with the replication factor when half of the indexers are off?

Half of the eight indexers will be off for potentially a day, so we'll have four indexers available for that time. Our replication/search factor is 2:2 and we wonder whether to leave it as 2:2, increase it to 3:3 or take it down to 1:1.
