Part 4: Clusters, Nodes and Devices | simplyblock Demo Series

Michael Schmidt, CTO and co-founder of simplyblock, digs deeper into cluster operations: which entities are relevant, and what you can do with each of them in the control center UI.

In this video:

Expanding the cluster: adding a storage node in multiple steps (node added, cluster reconfigured, data rebalanced)
Operations are initiated by users; tasks are issued by the system
Storage nodes: migrate a node to another host online, with no interruption of IO
Devices: a removal is temporary, failing a device is permanent
