Yes, a full reboot is not strictly necessary - just leave the cluster and rejoin.
3 upwards is fine - just keep adding them. It's just 2 nodes that is a special
case to avoid a split-brain.
When adding new nodes, make sure the config file version number is updated and
the cluster is told of the new version change using "cman_tool version -r<n>".
