Removing nodes from a CloudMan instance
Hi galaxy-devs, Quick question: when using the cloud console on CloudMan, it's possible to add different types of nodes (large, micro, etc) to the virtual cluster using the 'Add Nodes' option at the top. I can also remove a given number of nodes using the 'Remove Nodes' option at the top. However, is there any way to control exactly which node (or more importantly just which type of node) gets removed? Thanks for any help!

Unfortunately not. When removing nodes, CloudMan chooses from the nodes that are currently not being used but among those the choice is random. You can manually terminate a particular worker instance from the AWS console and thus remove it from your cluster by force. CloudMan will then reconfigure the cluster. Although this has been implemented and tested, it is not really the recommended behavior, especially not repeatedly. I'll look into how to implement this option.

Thanks Enis! It's not a problem for our current task, but it would be a nice feature. On Thu, Dec 1, 2011 at 8:38 PM, Enis Afgan <eafgan@emory.edu> wrote:
