When you activate maintenance mode, Redis Enterprise does the following:

Maintenance mode does not protect against quorum loss. If you activate maintenance mode for the majority of nodes in a cluster and restart them simultaneously, quorum is lost, which can lead to data loss.

This check does not verify that the majority of nodes in the cluster are not in maintenance mode. Do not activate maintenance mode on the majority of nodes and restart them simultaneously, as this can cause quorum loss and data loss.
