* Test infrastructure: 2 or more servers?

For a test infrastructure (that will be the definitive one after some
months) do you think that starting with only 2 servers and many ODSs
will be ok?

OpenStack swift suggest at least 3 servers (due to it's replica = 3),
with ceph is possible to start with 2 and then grow up to 3, 6 and so
on?

Is possible to change the number of replicas in realtime ?

You can change the number replicas in runtime with the following command:

$ ceph osd pool set {poolname} size {num-replicas}

So it's absolutely safe to start with just 2 server, make all the
necessary tests and when ready to go in production, increase the
servers and replicas?

It seems to be: Ceph will shuffle data to rebalance in situations such 
as when we change the replica num or when some nodes or disks are down.
