st_volume_move_node

For each node that you want to move, you must specify a destination node.
The 'srcnodes' and 'destnodes' must be of equal size.
The nodes to be moved can be online or offline, the destination nodes have to be online.

Moving a node may be denied in any of the following cases:

  • one or more segments on the source node have a snapshot map,
  • one or more segments on the source node have a redundancy segment on the destination node,
  • the source node is used for recovering another node and no other suitable node is available or
  • a segment on the source node is an unlock condition (if it was moved, the data in that address range would be lost).

Mandatory Parameters

vid integer Volume ID
src_nodes list List of the source node physical IDs
dst_nodes list List of the destination node physical IDs
