Unsubscribing from a Specified Node in a Yearly/Monthly Cluster

Usage Restrictions

• If the number of Core nodes in the cluster is less than or equal to the number of HDFS copies, MRS does not support node unsubscription to ensure data reliability. The number of HDFS copies can be queried using the dfs.replication parameter in the HDFS parameter configuration.
• MRS does not support unsubscription from nodes where ZooKeeper, Kudu, Kafka, or ClickHouse is deployed.

How to Unsubscribe from a Specified Node in a Yearly/Monthly Cluster

1. Disable the auto-renewal function of the cluster where the node to be unsubscribed from is located. For details, see Disabling Auto-Renewal.
2. Log in to the MRS console.
3. On the Active Clusters page, and click the name of the target cluster to be operated. The cluster details page is displayed.
4. On the Dashboard page of the cluster, click Synchronize on the right of IAM User Sync.
5. Unsubscribe from or isolate a node.
   

   Currently, only clusters of the following versions support unsubscription from specified nodes in yearly/monthly clusters. For clusters of other versions, contact technical support.

   • MRS 2.1.0 (patch 2.1.0.5 or later)
   • MRS 3.1.0 (patch 3.1.0.0.2 or later)
   • MRS 3.1.5
   • MRS 3.2.0-LTS.1 (patch 3.2.0-LTS.1.3 or later)
   • If the cluster is earlier than MRS 2.x:
     1. Click Isolate Node in the Operation column of the node group to be unsubscribed from.
     2. Select the node to be unsubscribed from and click OK.

        The time required for isolating a node depends on the data volume on the node. A larger data volume indicates a longer time.

        After the node is isolated, the node status changes to Isolated. The Unsubscribe from Node button is displayed on the Nodes tab page.

   • If the cluster is MRS 3.1.0, 3.1.5, or 3.2.0-LTS.1:
     1. Click Decommission Node in the Operation column of the node group to be unsubscribed from.
     2. Select the node to be decommissioned and click OK.

        The time required for decommissioning a node depends on the data volume on the node. A larger data volume indicates a longer time.

        After the node is decommissioned, the node status changes to Decommissioned.

        

        • For clusters of MRS 3.x (except MRS 3.1.0, 3.1.5, and 3.2.0-LTS.1), perform the following operations:
          1. If the DataNode of HDFS, NodeManager of Yarn, or RegionServer of HBase is deployed on the node to be unsubscribed from, log in to FusionInsight Manager and decommission the related instances. For details, see Decommissioning and Recommissioning an Instance.
          2. Log in to the MRS management console, on the Nodes tab, select the nodes to be unsubscribed from, and choose Node Operation > Isolate Host. After the host is isolated, contact the technical engineer to unsubscribe from the node.
        • Only one node can be isolated or decommissioned at a time. You can unsubscribe from a node only after the node is successfully isolated or decommissioned.
        • If the node fails to isolate or decommission, log in to Manager. Click , search for the name of the task that fails to isolate or decommission the host in the task list, click the name, and rectify the fault as prompted.

6. On the cluster details page, choose Nodes > Unsubscribe from Node.
7. Select the node to be unsubscribed from and click OK.

   Currently, you can unsubscribe from a maximum of 20 Core nodes at a time, but there must be at least 2 Core nodes available after unsubscription.

8. On the Refund Details page, select "I understand a handling fee will be charged for this unsubscription" as prompted if needed, and click Confirm. If this check box does not appear, skip this step.
   The cluster status changes to Scaling in. After the scale-in is complete, the cluster status changes to Running, and the specified node is deleted.
