Name and Version
bitnami/redis 20.5.0
What architecture are you using?
amd64
What steps will reproduce the bug?
A replica set up with 2 replicas may work but is unsafe due to sentinels being attached to each instance (and thus, having only 2 sentinels).
So having 2 replicas means 2 sentinels - which is not enough.
3 sentinels is a required minimum for quorum.
There is no way currently to detach the sentinels from the replicas, but they theoretically should be completely separated.
As, for example, if you want to have 4 replicas - that won't work either because quorums require 3/5/7... voters to work properly.
What do you see instead?
Sentinels amount set separately, and live in their own pods.
If a pod of a Redis instance has gone bad - we still need the sentinel to vote on the master. Detaching it is safe anyway.
