Folks, By default baseline topology is enforced only if persistence is enabled and is not defined in in-memory only scenario. But does this mean that I still CAN use it without persistence?
In some cases users want to avoid rebalancing in case of a node failure because it's assumed that this node will come back up very quickly. For example, there are 3 nodes and one of them dies. If data is rebalanced right away, I would need more memory space on 2 alive nodes which I might not have. Instead of increasing the amount of data there, I want to resurrect the dead node and restore the missing partitions there. Is BLT the right way to achieve behavior described above and if so, what are the exact steps? Should I set activeOnStart to false and then operation just like I would do with persistence? -Val
