Split brain

Open erkolson opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

The current use of the sidecare leaves the cluster vulnerable to split-brain due to network partition.

Would it be possible to introduce another environment variable to the sidecar for EXPECTED_CLUSTER_SIZE? This would keep the sidecar from removing replicas during a network partition and still allow it to resize dynamically when new replicas are added or removed.

If you are not aware, this blog post discusses the side-car and split-brain issue: http://pauldone.blogspot.co.uk/2017/06/deploying-mongodb-on-kubernetes-gke25.html
