You can also search [Runtime Policy] in your email list. Not sure if we can put this to Gantt and enable Gantt provide both initial placement and rum time polices like HA, load balance etc. Thanks, Jay 2014-02-21 21:31 GMT+08:00 Russell Bryant <rbry...@redhat.com>: > On 02/20/2014 06:04 PM, Sean Dague wrote: > > On 02/20/2014 05:32 PM, Russell Bryant wrote: > >> On 02/20/2014 05:05 PM, Costantino, Leandro I wrote: > >>> Hi, > >>> > >>> Would like to know if there's any interest on having > >>> 'automatic evacuation' feature when a compute node goes down.
