Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1956:
--------------------------------

No, all files will be removed. The info sender task will cause each coordinator to write its own information to the store again after a view change, based on {{info_writer_max_writes_after_view}} and {{info_writer_sleep_time}}. The former attribute governs the number of times this info is written, with a sleep (the latter attr) in-between.

> When we terminate a member (EC2's "terminate" function) or kill -9 it, then the file (or bucket data in S3) won't get removed. This leads to stale data. On EC2, I expect that virtualized instances are often simply terminated, so this problem is compounded there.
> SOLUTION:
> - Periodically write own data to the file system (FILE_PING) or S3 (S3_PING)
> - On a view change: remove all data that's not in the current view
