Re: [infinispan-dev] Suppressing state transfer via JMX

ISPN-3140 only mentions suspending state transfer. The partial cluster shutdown scenario is part of ISPN-1394. Doesn't it make sense to merge them?

But we'd still lose the keys whose owners are all among the nodes we want to stop. I've discussed this with Adrian, and we think if we want to stop a part of the cluster without losing data we need a JMX operation on the coordinator that will "atomically" remove a set of nodes from the CH. After the operation completes, the user will know it's safe to stop those nodes without losing data. > > When it comes to starting a part of the cluster, a "pause rebalancing" option would probably be better - but again, on the coordinator, not on each joining node. And clearly, if more than numOwner nodes leave while rebalancing is suspended, data will be lost. > > Cheers > Dan > > > > On Fri, May 31, 2013 at 12:17 PM, Manik Surtani <msurtani(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > Guys > > We've discussed ISPN-3140 elsewhere before, I'm brining it to this forum now. > > https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-3140 > > Any thoughts/concerns?
