I lost the cluster communication again.

I have been using Proxmox since version 1, and this is the first time It 
bothers me so much!

- All the 10 nodes have the same version

(pve-manager/5.2-9/4b30e8f9 (running kernel: 4.13.13-2-pve))

- All they have the same date / time (It is one of the causes It could 
lose the communication)

- The environment is ident (No new switch, no new server)


And why all these nodes lost the communication at the same time ? If 
they are 10 at least 5 have to be with problems to lost the quorum and 
then the connection. Is it true?

I think it is something related to this proxmox version.

What to do ?
