Clustat reports "Estranged" whenever it asks cman for a node list, and
the corresponding node does not show up in cluster.conf.

In your case, it means that cman still has state about the node despite
the configuration change in ccsd.

I'm not sure cman "purges" nodes that were dead (but part of
cluster.conf) that later are removed from cluster.conf.

Chrissie might know.
