Description:
In a 2 data node setup, it is currently not possible to do an initial start of data node 4 while node 3 is down.

How to repeat:
Start a cluster with 2 data nodes, NoOfReplicas=2

Data node 3 is down, we do following:

shell> ndbd --ndb-nodeid=4 --initial-start --nowait-nodes=3

Fails with:
