[Linux-cluster] Node can't join already quorated cluster

Fencing is critical, and running a cluster without fencing, even with 
qdisk, is not supported. Manual fencing is also not supported. The 
*only* way to have a reliable cluster, testing or production, is to use 
fencing.

Why do you not wish to use it?
