3.2. Managing Compute Nodes¶
Nodes in the compute cluster are shown on the NODES tab.
Clicking a node, you can see the following information about it:
- node CPU and RAM usage,
- node name, status, and IP address,
- hosted virtual machines and their resource consumption.
The next subsections describe how to add nodes to and remove nodes from the compute cluster.
3.2.1. Adding Nodes to Compute Cluster¶
To add one or more nodes to your compute cluster, do the following:
Click Add node on the NODES tab.
On the Add node panel, select nodes to add to the compute cluster and click Add.
If required, configure network on each node: click the cogwheel icon, assign networks to node NICs to cover the required traffic types, and click Apply.
The added nodes will appear on the NODES tab.
3.2.2. Releasing Nodes from Compute Cluster¶
Warning
When a node is released from the compute cluster, all virtual machines hosted on it are destroyed. To keep them, migrate them to other compute nodes first.
To release one or more nodes from the compute cluster, do the following:
- On the NODES tab, either
- select the nodes and click Release nodes above the list, or
- click the ellipsis icon next to a node and select Release, or
- click a node to open its details, then click Release node on the top toolbar.
- In the Release node window, confirm the action by clicking Remove.
The selected nodes will disappear from the NODES tab.
