thanks for the info. Just to be sure will a reboot of an active node automatical cause a failover to a passive node, regadless of the reason for the reboot?

It does not automatically go back to the original active node, no. The Node will stay active wherever it failed to unless that active node reboots for some reason or the cluster is manually failed back.
