Hi.

What are the operations to do when the master node in a cluster failed and it is not accessible?
How is it possible to configured all other nodes without the master server?

Thank you very much!
Bye.

there is no master in 2.x, its a quorum based system.

this means as long as the remaining nodes have quorum, you can manage everything.

Does this happen even if I use unicast instead of multicast?
