Description:
Today you need to be explicit about how many replicas you want to start Cluster with.
(Set NoOfReplicas=2 in the config.ini  file)

From a ease of use perspective, and that most users want to use 2, I suggest to have a default value of 2.

If this setting is not in the config.ini file, cluster will not start.

How to repeat:
Start cluster with a config.ini that does NOT contain:

NoOfReplicas

And cluster does not start

Many positive reactions when I asked about this on IRC. My conclusion is that we should do it and since all users already have it set in their config -> we can do it in 6.3

Documented bugfix/feature change in the NDB-6.3.25 and 7.0.6 changelogs as follows:

        Previously, the configuration parameter NoOfReplicas had no
        default value. Now the default for NoOfReplicas is 2, which is
        the recommended value in most settings.

Also updated descriptions of NoOfReplicas in manual.
