How hard is it to add/remove chunkservers?

Your chunkservers are pretty simple to set up. Usually, if your /etc/hosts file is set up correctly with the address of the master server and you do not require labeling, the mfschunkserver.cfg file can stay as it is. ↳ Check out step-by-step instructions in our Documentation.
