Hi!
Reading the corosync.conf manual page of corosync 2.3.6 (SLES12 SP4), I have some random comments:
The tag indent for "clear_node_high_bit" seems broken.
Shouldn't "hold" be "token_hold"? Why is "token_retransmits_before_loss_const" so long (why the "_const")?
The description states "...retransmit and hold will be automatically  calculated...". Shouldn't that be "token_retransmit" (also see my earlier remark on "hold")?
For "token" the page says "Reforming a new configuration takes about 50 milliseconds..." shouldn't "50 ms" be "join timeout"?
"consensus should be larger then token" : ".. larger than .."?
"... which stil guarantee...": "still guarantee"? Maybe try a spell-checker ;-)
In general the manual page would benefit if all parameter names were set in bold face, as in "as node count grows if consensus is less than token".
Terrible sentences: "This  constant specifies how many rotations of the token without receiving any of the messages when messages should  be  received may occur before a new configuration is formed."
"This specifies the number of times a problem is detected ...": "...a problem has to be detected..."?
"If this value is set, retransmit and hold will be automatically  calculated  from retransmits_before_loss and token.": the parameter "retransmits_before_loss" is not documented!
Regards,
Ulrich
