Status of goconserver clustering with etcd

[mattaezell]

It looks like #38 added some support for clustering, but there isn't much documentation. What features are currently supported, and what is deferred to future implementation?

For example: If I setup 4 goconservers and add 40 nodes, could I expect each server to (approximately) handle 10 nodes each? If one of the goconservers were to fail, would its ~10 nodes be evenly distributed among the other 3? When it recovers, would that server take its ~10 nodes back over?

Is there any plan to integrate cluster-mode/etcd into xCAT?

I started up 3 goconservers and added 20 nodes. The nodes were evenly registered among the 3 servers. I killed one server and the nodes that it owned showed as 'notfound'.

It appears that there is (currently) no support for failover.
