In discussion #15837 an etcd user wasn't clear about how to specify
initial-cluster
in the configuration file which led to their cluster not starting, and unfortunately our sample configuration file currently doesn't provide any real guidance on this.Let's help our users get it right the first time by adding a quick example format to the config file.
Longer term we should also investigate better handling of spaces in these strings so a more expressive dictionary style could be freely used as well.
