Description

In InfluxDB Enterprise, we recently had an issue with a meta node split brain. This is an exceptional state that we believe is caused by incorrect steps while performing operational maintenance tasks on the meta cluster (e.g. incorrect procedures when migrating the meta nodes to new hosts).

Detailed steps for how to resolve can be found here:https://github.com/influxdata/plutonium/issues/3677#issuecomment-957875104 . It would be nice to publish these as a troubleshooting guide for InfluxDB Enterprise.
