What happens, If 2 of the Search Heads are down in a 3-member cluster?

    • Assumption: The cluster has Search factor-2 & Replication Factor-3
    • If a majority of members fail, the cluster cannot successfully elect a new captain, which fails in the entire cluster.
    • In this case you may have to go ahead with configuring the remaining member as a static captain
