refreshing logical nodes

Hi

If I am using a tailDir source and I issue a refreshAll command via the
master, it seems like all of my nodes begin sending all of the files again.
Is this as expected? I am running in DFO mode.

If this is as expected when you provision a new node is it ok to not issue a
refreshAll

Thanks

The refreshAll command will cause all nodes to reload their configuration and is expect led behavior. I will usually issue a refresh <nodename> to refresh the specific node and not the entire cluster.
