Replication factor > 1 is now recommended, contrary to what the docs say.

Ref: /api/latest/distributed-hypertables/create_distributed_hypertable/

Docs: https://docs.timescale.com/api/latest/distributed-hypertables/create_distributed_hypertable/

Discussion: https://timescaledb.slack.com/archives/CPSD82EMU/p1700491915098979?thread_ts=1700220781.353329&cid=CPSD82EMU

Information from Slack forum: "When you mark a chunk as stale, the chunk becomes under-replicated. When the failed data node becomes available then such chunks can be re-balanced using the copy_chunk API."
