Vault Won't Stay Unsealed
Vault boots up sealed every time. Fix the config so the cluster initializes, unseals, and stays usable.
Puzzle Overview
The Vault server on this host is running, but every time it starts it comes up sealed and the three unseal keys the previous admin left in a text file no longer work after a restart. The storage backend is fine — the problem is in the configuration.
Your job: get Vault running, initialized (if needed), and able to serve requests. Figure out what's wrong with the existing setup and fix it.
