No problem :), the info you supplied was the correct
I'll see what can be made out of it. I can see what went wrong
but fail to understand why on a short look at it.

Yes, this is possible. If you pull the plug out of the storage/API 
nodes then there will be a few
aborted transactions but then it will continue to work and these nodes 
can rejoin the cluster
while in operation. Losing the management server has no impact on the 
system other than that
nodes are not able to start if they were down and also there will be no 
cluster log while it is down.
But the cluster will continue to process transactions even when the 
management server is down
or one of the storage/API nodes.
