      <title>Node flags</title>

      <para>Nodes have two flags which govern which roles they can take:

        <variablelist>

          <varlistentry>

            <term>master_capable</term>

            <listitem>

              <para>

                The node can become a master candidate, and

                furthermore the master node. When this flag is

                disabled, the node cannot become a candidate; this can

                be useful for special networking cases, or less

                reliable hardware.

              </para>

            </listitem>

          </varlistentry>

          <varlistentry>

            <term>vm_capable</term>

            <listitem>

              <para>

                The node can host instances. When enabled (the default

                state), the node will participate in instance

                allocation, capacity calculation, etc. When disabled,

                the node will be skipped in many cluster checks and

                operations.

              </para>

            </listitem>

          </varlistentry>

        </variablelist>

      </para>
