What > exactly is happening when a 'initiates transition'? A cluster state transition is what happens when a node joins or leaves the cluster. All the nodes that are known to be members collaborate in the transition to work out the new cluster membership. If the transition takes too long to complete (eg not all the nodes are responding) then the transition is restarted - which is what you are seeing here. It's a little more complicated than that, of course. But that's the general idea. One transition restart is unusual but reasonable in a very busy environment. two is almost unheard of, and the repeating set you have is either a very bad and strange network outage, or a very bad and strange bug.
