Re: Partitioned cluster question (reboot during lost quorum)

OK, many thanks to everyone. I think I have a much better grasp of the
EXPECTED_VOTES SYSGEN parameter.

So the gist of it is to set every node'S EXPECTED vote to ensure that
they cannot boot alone if disconnected from the ethernet. And manually
set it to "1" TEMPORARILY if you really need a node to boot alone/first
before allowing others to join. (consider the case when a node is known
to have the valid copy of shadow disk members, so you want that one to
boot first and mount them first so they become source of future copy
operations isntead of targets).
