Follow-up question.
I noticed that secauth was turned off in my corosync.conf file. I enabled
it on all 3 nodes and restarted the cluster. Everything was working fine.
However I just noticed that I had forgotten to copy the authkey to one of
the node. It is present on 2 nodes but not the third. And I did a failover
and the third node took over without any issue.
How is the 3rd node participating in the cluster if it doesn't have the
authkey?
