Description:
NDB API applications are connecting to the management node for getting the configuration. When using dynamic ports (default) they also need to connect to the 2nd management node.
However, if the 2nd management node is unreachable, it takes to long for this attempt to timeout. The thread doing connections is hereby blocked.

How to repeat:
(cluster dev knows)

Suggested fix:
Set timeout lower for connections to management nodes (hard code), and retry?
