So how does this bit work? If one master falls over and slaves move to master two, how do you rebuild master one without downtime? Don't the slaves try and use Master 1 as soon as it's back online even though its data is out of sync? What if one of the slaves loses its heartbeat with master one and falls over to master two when other slaves can still see master one. Don't you then have inconsistencies in your data?
