Sorry for bring back this old mail...

While testing with my current problem, i had a setup with four
zones (on two host...). If I separated two of them (kill or plug
network cable) the two remaining nodes try to recover, but failing
(somehow expectable ;-).

But with your description I await, that the remaining sheeps stops
because two are not more than the half of all nodes...
