bootstrapping. Bootstrapping happens when there is no system data and the
auto_bootstrap: yaml config is set true, normally nodes only bootstrap once in
their life.
If you bring a node back for whatever reason you will want to

replicas?
I readed in the maillist archives that in case of token collision, the
cluster may not work correctly. But if the restarted node takes always
