I agree that maybe allowing min_l3_agents_per_router=1 is not necessary, but I do think that there should be some solution for my use case:

- Run L3-HA on two network nodes / L3 agents
- Allow customers to create new routers even while one of the nodes is temporarily out of service

Would it make sense to rephrase the bug description with that or should I file a new bug?

If I understood our IRC conversion correctly, even with your patch in place, it will still be possible to run some script that will perform the task of growing from 1 to 2 or maybe from 2 to 3 replicas, similar to what we are using in the non-HA case in order to reschedule routers from failed L3 agents to others.

If that is correct, I think having my patch will still be sensible, as it will solve the goal of hiding outages from customers, which IMHO is the basic idea behind providing some "high availability" service.
