Suspend and Resume Nodes
This section explains how to suspend and resume nodes in a cluster.
The suspended node state indicates that the node has been intentionally taken offline, for example for maintenance.
Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for this procedure.
Procedure
This procedure is carried out using ConfD.
The following examples use ConfD through the command-line tool confd_client, which is available on all database nodes. For more information, see ConfD.
Connect to COS
Connect to EXAClusterOS (COS) on the cluster using c4 connect -t <DEPLOYMENT>[.<NODE>]/cos
. For example:
If you do not specify a node, c4 will connect to the first active node in the deployment.
For more information about how to use c4 connect
, see How to use c4.
Suspend a node
To suspend a node, use the ConfD command node_suspend with the node ID. For example, to suspend node 12 in the current deployment:
Resume a node
Starting up a node will automatically unsuspend it. You can also manually unsuspend a node using the ConfD job node_resume. For example:
