Quorum voting is used by both the live and the backup to decide what to do if a replication connection is disconnected.
Basically, the server will request each live server in the cluster to vote as to whether it thinks the server it is replicating to or from is still alive.
You can also configure the time for which the quorum manager will wait for the quorum vote response.
Currently, the value is hardcoded as 30 sec. We should change this 30-second wait to be configurable.
