[pve-devel] [RFC pve-cluster] prefer 'name' subkey over 'ring0_addr' for nodename

[Thomas Lamprecht]

Ok, i think its time to go home for today. A reboot solved my 
objections, everything is working as expected and better.
Lesson learned, live integration of such changes with corosync-cfgtool 
-R do not work on multi nodes cluster.

Request for comment.
