That way the node going out of the cluster got rid of its data as fast as possible, while the nodes serving clients only had 1 transfer each to make sure they weren't overloaded. It worked fine for me, but it might depend on how much load you have on the cluster during the data migration and how important response times are for your system. -- *Jeppe Toustrup* Operations Engineer *Falcon Social*
