Rules that apply · 1

Every rule whose selector covers this component's kind or its category. Whether a rule fires depends on the design: its properties, its edges and its groups.

stateful-node-without-zone-redundancy

A stateful compute node pinned to exactly one availability zone disappears with that zone, and its state goes with it. Nodes inside a cell are exempt, because there the cell is deliberately single-zone and redundancy comes from the other cells.

  • — all of these hold:
  • — the node's `stateless` is false
  • — the node sits inside exactly 1 availability-zone group
  • — this does not hold:
  • — the node sits inside at least one cell group

# Azure Data Box Gateway: a virtual appliance you run on your own hypervisor that exposes SMB and NFS shares
# and writes their contents through to Azure Storage ("Microsoft Azure Data Box Gateway overview"). The
# specifications table on that page gives a single-node device with a minimum of 4 virtual processors, 8 GB
# of RAM and a 2 TB data disk used as a local cache, data in flight encrypted with AES-256, day-to-day
# management from the Azure portal, and a disconnected mode for offline upload.
