node_disk

Description

The node_disk parameter specifies the disk size for each node in the cluster, measured in gigabytes (GB). This setting determines the storage capacity available for your nodes.

Default Value

The default value for node_disk is 20 GB.

Use Cases

  • Storage Optimization: Adjust the disk size to meet the storage requirements of your applications and workloads.
  • Performance Management: Ensure that each node has sufficient storage to handle its tasks without running into capacity issues.

Setting Parameters

To set the node_disk parameter, use the following command:

$ convox rack params set node_disk=50 -r rackName
Setting parameters... OK

This command sets the disk size for each node to 50 GB.

Additional Information

Adjusting the node_disk size can help you optimize the storage capacity of your cluster based on your specific needs. Larger disk sizes provide more storage for applications and data, but they may also increase costs. Ensure that the disk size you choose balances capacity, performance, and cost-effectiveness.

By configuring the node_disk parameter, you can ensure that your nodes have the appropriate amount of storage to support your workloads and applications effectively.
