out nodes with differing values for those fields even if not displayed.

fast_schedule == 0 (i.e. the node's value is used directly rather
than the partition's configuration value).

Local code added that is built and used only as needed.

This was a problem briefly observed in RedHat 9.

when a node becomes DOWN for not responding. This is because if there

nodes as DOWN.
