reassiging tasks automatically does not work

Hi, according to the storm documentation:

“All you need to do in order to scale is add more machines to the cluster.
Storm will reassign tasks to new machines as they become available.”

But from what I understand I need to call “Rebalance” in order for tasks to
be reassigned.

So where is the automatically factor? Am I missing something?



Thanks, Michal

Yeah, you need to call “rebalance”, otherwise storm will not reassign tasks — unless the tasks are assigned to fewer workers than requested before you add machines.
