Description-en: cluster engine quorum device daemon
corosync-qdevice is a daemon running on each node of a cluster. It provides
a configured number of votes to the quorum subsystem based on a third-party
arbitrator's decision. Its primary use is to allow a cluster to sustain more
node failures than standard quorum rules allow. It is recommended for clusters
with an even number of nodes and highly recommended for 2 node clusters.
