Hi Alex, The claimant node is used in operations related to adding/removing nodes from the cluster, things like that. If the node dies, for example, due to hardware failure, then the cluster will still continue to operate normally. In this regard, there's nothing special about the claimant node. During normal operations, it's just like any other node. It's only when attempting to run certain administrative commands that you'd find it doesn't work. You just simply mark it as down though and the cluster will re-elect a new claimant to take over the role and you can continue.
