Hello,

Quick question, just wondering how will "auto-evict" affect a 3 node
linstor cluster with a replica number of 2? Say that node1 goes down for
more than an 1h, linstor will try to replace its drbd resources to either
node2 or node3 assuming that the redundacy level falls below 2 and there's
enough free space in the backing device on remaining nodes (will diskless
clients count in this case?).

How will linstor respond in the case where node1 comes back online?  Will
it just restore back drbd resources on it ? or it will just reject that
node from being a part of the cluster and in this case the node will have
to be rejoined to the cluster.

Thank you,
Yannis
