Creating and Altering Clusters
This article describes how to create and alter clusters within Magpie. Clusters can contain two types of nodes:
Downloading Files onto Clusters
Upload a file to the Magpie MDR and have it placed on a cluster at startup, so configuration and dependencies live in permissioned metadata objects rather than in the cluster's bootstrap script.
Installing Python Libraries during Cluster Bootstrapping
Clusters can be configured to install Python packages during bootstrapping. These packages will be available in the Python context when running the cluster.
Starting and Stopping Clusters
After creating a cluster, it must be started and set as your current cluster in order to use it.
Configuring Cluster Health Notifications
Magpie monitors the health of clusters and has the ability to send notifications when the health status of a cluster changes. Notifications are sent via email.
