Hi, Rob,

What is the status of the database?  The cluster of remaining nodes may remain 
available, but not necessarily the databases.  Voting requires >50% from the 
available/remaining nodes.  Cluster availability does not require >50% of the 
original number of nodes.  Details:

thanks Danny,

so what triggers the voting? Not having all the forests available?

The downed hosts probably did not contain the master forests, so no quorum vote 
was called for.

We have the same setup. We can even go to just having one host alive and still 
serve data.

Hi,

I have a cluster with 6 hosts. I stopped 3 of the hosts and the remaining 3 are 
still accepting reads/writes.

Why is this? I was expecting the quorum not to be reached because we don't have 
>50% of hosts available.
