We have the same issue here, we actually have 4 Graylog2 servers, two are 
dedicated search nodes for the web interface (one of which is the master) 
and the other two are dedicated for inputs.

If I ever have the master node offline, the web interface reports it cannot 
contact a Graylog2 master node and users cannot log in nor use the 
interface, however inputs of course keep accepting data and streams are 
still processed.

I have attached a screen dump of the error.

What would be ideal is if there was a similar setting like Elasticsearch 
where you can elect nodes that *can* be masters and an election is 
performed automatically by the Graylog2 service.
