Hello, I have 6 node grid and I've configured it with 1 backup. I want to have partition rebalancing but only in the following way. If one of the six nodes goes down, then some primary and backup partitions go down with it but there is no data loss since the backup for those are present on one of the other five nodes. So there is only single copy for these paritions i. At this point I do not want that the 5 nodes rebalance all the paritions amongst themselves such that each one has 1 primary and 1 backup ii. When this 6th node comes back up, I want the partitions in the other nodes which are living with only a single copy, so hydrate this fresh 6th one with copies of the partitions that has only one copy before. Why i? Because I don't want a situation of cascading OOMs Why ii? Obvious reason so as to have the 2nd copy for all partitions. Is this possible? If not what's the best way to come close to this? Thanks, Abhi
