Startup/Shutdown Sequence

Even if the startup order is not compulsory, it is advised to

  • start the node controller first, wait until it is really running

  • and then start all the Lobster_data nodes.

If everything has been configured correctly, you will find a message similar to the following in the message log of the node controller.

10:25:50 NORMAL Job: GENERAL [unknown] Delegator: Added new node [http://192.168.213.202:8020], available nodes = 1

Note: The shutdown sequence has to be in reverse order, i.e. all the Lobster_data nodes have to be stopped first and then the node controller!
