Yeah, so, failure to babysit the db node that was scheduled for a reboot on the 5th resulted in a bit of database FUBAR that left us temporarily losing everything from then to now. Fortunately we had a backup less than six hours old, restored from it, and appear to be copacetic now. Except for the missing five hours and change.
I'd usually make some sort of dumb joke here but it was already four hours past my bedtime when I found out about the problem. My brain is no work good anymore. Fill in whatever dad joke or snark about getting a do-over for a change strikes your fancy.

No, if it fails, there is no arbitrator but you still have a quorum, which means they just elect a new one or continue without one. But, you also would have survived the explained incident automatically without the split brain that resulted had you had one. I could go on, but you are going to do whatever you want anyway, so I'm not going to bother anymore.
