Description of problem: Currently with changes to fix https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1898954 needed API server to be available for cluster backup to be taken. Sometimes, it is desirable to force a backup even when the API server is not available to check the health of the cluster. For example, the disruptive tests rely on taking a backup with two masters down. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Bring two masters down. 2. Attempt to take a backup using cluster-backup.sh script. 3. Actual results: backup fails with unreachable API server (error may report etcdserver timeout) Expected results: With --force option, which is being added, the backup should be successful even when API server is not reachable.
