Description

The REPLACENODE command explicitly does not support the source node not being live, and fails at the beginning if it is not live. However, later on, it also explicitly supports that same source node not being live.

In most situations, except if a shard has a single replica being on the down source node, the unavailability of the source node should not be problematic.

I therefore propose to support running the REPLACENODE command with the source node not being live.
