Removing Dead Nodes from Cluster

Hello, 
I have a hadoop cluster setup with 1 master node and 6 data nodes. I have set the replication factor as 2 in hadoop. Currently due to some hardware issue i have lost 2 data nodes.If i remove the dead nodes from the cluster can i get all the data from rest of the nodes since i have the replication factor as 2 here? 
Please tell me the steps to remove the dead nodes from the cluster. 

Thanks,
Manickam P

Firstly, edit hdfs-site.xml;
hdfs-site.xml:
  <property>
    <name>dfs.hosts.exclude</name>
    <value>/path/to/exclude_dn_list</value>
  </property>

Then,
hdfs dfsadmin -refreshNodes

Check on name node ui for missing blocks. You will lose all the blocks that
have replicas only on the lost data nodes.
