Our users often encounter hard to understand problems and errors when they misconfigure password_secret and don't use the same value for all (data/server) nodes.

We should be able to recognize this issue early, during preflight checks.

First idea:

  • Check cluster config for a specific encoded entry
  • If the entry exists, try to decode it. If not found, create one
  • If the decoding succeeds, verify that it contains expected and known value. Otherwise fail and stop boot with good error message.
