Subject: [PATCH docs v4 2/8] pvecm: add info about warnings regarding token coefficient
Date: Fri,  5 Jun 2026 17:38:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260605153819.310048-3-m.koeppl@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260605153819.310048-1-m.koeppl@proxmox.com>

`pvecm status` might warn users of a high sum of token and consensus
timeout, recommending lowering the token coefficient. To make users
aware that these warnings may occur and to allow users to search for
this warning in the docs and man pages, extend the section on lowering
the token coefficient.
