### Search before asking - [X] I had searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/doris/issues?q=is%3Aissue) and found no similar issues. ### Description If I don't have a three cluster deployment, I don't see why I should be required to type **"replication_allocation" = "tag.location.default: 1"** each time I want to create a table. It's cumbersome and I have to code around it. I also benefitted from talking directly to a member of the Doris team who so kindly reached out to me on Slack, but a beginner may not be able to understand the message **" ERROR 1105 (HY000): Unexpected exception: errCode = 2, detailMessage = Failed to execute CTAS Reason: errCode = 2, detailMessage = Failed to find 3 backends for policy: cluster|query|load|schedule|tags|medium: default_cluster|false|false|true|[{"location" : "default"}]|HDD"** or at least the solution should be indicated. ### Solution Can we create a global to remove it? Another solution (buit which then imposes straint on the team to design) would be to make it equivalent to the number of BE, and other replication counts are mandatory. ### Are you willing to submit PR? - [ ] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
