Hey guys, first off.. wow.. lots of good questions on this list lately.
;)
Anyway, I think I have this right, but I'm not sure.
Once the cluster is running.. say with 4 nodes .. can I add nodes later?
I understand that 6 nodes is a no-no, but say I wanted to add 4 more
nodes after the cluster has been running for a few months and has 5G of
data in it.
Here's how I think it works. Correct me where I'm wrong:
1) Add new nodes to the config on the management server.
2) Start the new nodes
3) restart the existing db and api nodes one by one
4) magically new nodes start getting new inserts.
Or is it more complex than that?
Thanks
