Andrey, This configuration property is there just in case you want to set your own ID instead of creating a random one, it's not used in vast majority of use cases.
There is also setConsistentId() property which has to survive node restarts (by default it's a pair of hostname and port). This one is used by affinity functions. BTW, consistent hashing is not used anymore. We have RendezvousAffinityFunction and FairAffinityFunction instead. -Val -- View this message in context: http://apache-ignite-users.70518.x6.nabble.com/IgniteConfiguration-setNodeId-usage-clarification-tp818p822.html Sent from the Apache Ignite Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
