Membership change can happen for many reason. It can happen if something is
wrong on the switch (or if some admin configures the switch), a damaged network cable,
a bug in the bonding driver, a damaged network card, or simply a power failure on a node,
which reconnects after power is on....
In Literature, the problem is also known as 'Babbling idiot' (Realtime people use that term). A single node
can make the whole system unusable.
