Hi,
I could not find in the documentation the definition of an "arbitrator", except that it
could be either an API or MGM
node. So I know that I can define an arbitrator with a rank. But what exactly is an
arbitrator?
Could you please provide a definition?
Furthermore, I understand that, when a node dies, the survivor one has to ask the
arbitrator to decide if it can restart
or not.

What I don't understand is the need of an arbitrator in such a case. If only oine node
survives, why it can't decide all
alone to continue working?
Thanks for any help.
