That seems to work fine if you upgrade all nodes simultaneously but if you
try and perform a rolling upgrade the negative node ids come back. I assume
this is because the node running the old pacemaker is still using those
nodeids and is sending them back to the new node. Is there anyway to be
able to perform this upgrade rolling or will it have to be all nodes at
once?
