Abstract
A method and system for managing a storage cluster is described. An identification of a plurality of nodes of a storage cluster to be removed from the storage cluster is received. It is determined whether to allow the removal of the plurality of nodes. In response to a determination that the removal of the plurality of nodes is allowed, identifications are made of data migrations to be performed to rebalance the data among nodes remaining in the storage cluster after removal of the plurality of nodes. The data migrations are performed. The plurality of nodes are removed from the storage cluster.
