Are we leaving out "CRITICAL" on purpose? I opened an issue about it yesterday for another part of the docs: #985 |

Couple editorial nits but will defer to @marta-lokhova for content correctness and approval 🙏 |

Thanks for documenting leader election! I have a similar question to @nano-o's - do we want to mention CRITICAL quality as well? |
|
The problem is that there's no mention of CRITICAL anywhere else in the docs, so I think it would be wrong/confusing to mention it only in the nomination leader election section. We could add a description of CRITICAL to the admin docs, but I'm not sure whether CRITICAL was intentionally left out of the docs, which is what I think @nano-o's question is getting at. |
|
After some discussion with @marta-lokhova we decided to add a generic, level-agnostic description of the algorithm, as well as an example using HIGH, MEDIUM, and LOW quality validators. I'll make that change and ping @marta-lokhova when it's ready. |
Part of stellar/stellar-core#4387 This change adds a section to the admin guide explaining the impact of validator quality levels on SCP nomination leader election.
