            <title>[DOCS-1290] Create docs page explaining *why* we require a majority of the set to be up to have a PRIMARY</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-1290</link>
                <project id="10380" key="DOCS">Documentation</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;We clearly document that you need a majority of nodes up to have a primary, but I can&apos;t find anything explaining our rationale for that decision.  A lot of people don&apos;t fully understand why we made that choice and don&apos;t fully understand the differences/tradeoffs between a single master or multi-master system.  See &lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-9081&quot; title=&quot;Can&amp;#39;t failover last SECONDARY node with Replica set.&quot; class=&quot;issue-link&quot; data-issue-key=&quot;SERVER-9081&quot;&gt;&lt;del&gt;SERVER-9081&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/a&gt; for one example of such confusion.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We should have a page that explains the difference between multi-master and single-master systems, explains why we chose a single-master system (strong consistency), and explains how having a single-master system necessitates the majority up requirement (network splits).&lt;/p&gt;</description>
