    <p><tt>Hi Giovanni!</tt></p>
    <p><tt>You are absolutely right, nowadays there are very little
        differences between flagging a node with either<br>
        "seed" or "NULL", thanks to seed_fallback_interval [1], which
        makes both of them perform a sync anyway<br>
        on startup.  The only difference is that a non-seed node will
        perform a sync _for sure_, no matter how<br>
        long it waits for other nodes.  This can be a useful feature if
        your network is particularly poor, with<br>
        links between nodes which fail often.  In this case, using
        "NULL" is actually better, as it protects you<br>
        when restarting your isolated backup nodes -- eventually, they
        will fetch the data!<br>
      </tt></p>
    <p><tt>TL;DR: unless you have very poor network links between your
        nodes, you can flag your nodes with either<br>
        "1 x seed, (N-1) x NULL" or "N x seed".  As long as you set a
        seed_fallback_interval, both will be good.</tt></p>
    <p><tt>Cheers,<br>

        <div>Hello Liviu,</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>a question about the beautiful tutorial: in HA
          (active-passive) would not be better to have both servers
          marked as seed (in db), so if any of two goes down, when it
          comes back online will feed from the other (that in mean time
          was promoted to active)?</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>If only one server is seed, and that server goes down, when
          it comes up, will wait 5 seconds, and then "think" to be ok,
          without feeding from the other... Correct?</div>
