Hi.

The cluster doesn't replicate events between the cluster nodes. So if a node is down all events that was contained on the node will be unavaliable.
If you ment that the cluster dind't recieve any events when the master node is down. You have probably configured your agents/syslog clients to send their events directly to the master nodes IP. To use the cluster you need to configure a  Virtual IP adress in the integrated load balancer in the cluster settings and configure your Agents/Syslog clients to send to that ip adress instead.

When the node containing the VIP goes down it will move to another host and with that move of IP the cluster sees to it that at leaste one node is avaliable to recieve events.

You can read about the Backup and restore in the documentation.
