Issue

Added one or more AFF-A320 HA pair to an existing cluster
AFF A320 nodes report takeover is disabled due to unsynchronized log in EMS:

monitor.globalStatus.critical: Controller failover of <node> is not possible: unsynchronized log.

cf.fsm.takeoverOfPartnerDisabled: Failover monitor: takeover of <node> disabled (unsynchronized log).
