Is it allowed to have more than one replica of the Meta Node in a Kubernetes deployment?

Neil is asking about the possibility of having multiple replicas of the Meta Node in a Kubernetes deployment due to issues faced when the Meta Node went down and was brought back up. Yingjun suggests replicating the Meta Node using K8s. Neil deployed the cluster using a Helm chart and is looking for confirmation on adding replicas.

  • Yes, it is allowed to have more than one replica of the Meta Node in a Kubernetes deployment.

  • Replicating the Meta Node using Kubernetes (K8s) is recommended.

  • To add replicas in a Kubernetes deployment, you can update the Helm chart configuration to specify the desired number of replicas for the Meta Node.

Example:

replicas: 3
  • Adding replicas can help improve the fault tolerance and resilience of the Meta Node in the cluster.
