Choosing the Node Failover Order

The node failover order allows you to choose which node will become the master node after the master node is removed from the cluster. If you do not select a failover order, by default the next oldest node becomes the master. For example, if you have a disaster recovery node you do not wish to become the master, you can make it the last node in the failover order.
