Connecting Remote Collector Node / Data Node to new Master Node

Hi

I have a scenario for disaster recovery. What if a Master Node and its Master Replica become permanently offline. Is it possible to re-attach Data Nodes or Remote Collector Nodes to a new cluster somehow, or must they be powered off/deleted and re-deployed? Is this supported?

Thanks

If the master and master replica are permanently offline (and there is no backup to restore), your cluster is dead. You'd have to redeploy all new nodes across the board.

If you find this or any other answer useful please mark the answer as correct or helpful.

Yeah OK. So definitely no way to disconnect a Data Node or Remote Collector Node from a cluster and reattach it to a new one. Gotcha. Thanks
