3.1.4.1.72 ApiEvictNode (Opnum 71)

  • Article

(Protocol Version 2) The ApiEvictNode method instructs the server to remove the specified node, as specified in section 3.1.1.6, from the nonvolatile cluster configuration.

The server MUST remove any reference to the designated node from data in the cluster nonvolatile cluster store that is used to control placement of a resource or group. The server SHOULD effect a cleanup of itself so as to allow it to join another cluster.

A node SHOULD allow itself to be evicted even if it is not active.

The server MUST accept an ApiEvictNode request only if its protocol server state is read/write, as specified in section 3.1.1.
