Stateful node without zone redundancyerror

stateful-node-without-zone-redundancy

A stateful compute node pinned to exactly one availability zone disappears with that zone, and its state goes with it. Nodes inside a cell are exempt, because there the cell is deliberately single-zone and redundancy comes from the other cells.

— all of these hold:
— the node's `stateless` is false
— the node sits inside exactly 1 availability-zone group
— this does not hold:
— the node sits inside at least one cell group
