The port can be overridden by an entry the services database +by passing the ``-p`` option. +The ``-b`` option can be used to specify the address to bind to +(defaults to ``0.0.0.0``). + +The daemon will refuse to start if it cannot verify that the majority +of cluster nodes believes that it is running on the master node. To +allow failover in a two-node cluster, this can be overridden by the +``--no-voting`` option. In this case, the ``--yes-do-it`` option has +to be given as well. -- 2.4.3.573.g4eafbef
