GFS predated chubby.
The master is configured with the endpoints for all the chunkaervers. A separate control/config system supported this including things like automatic replacement of dead nodes.
- kirugan 4y agohow do you know?

- kirugan 4y agoAwesome! Just checked the whitepaper there was a cluster with 300 machines, so all machines had to be described in configuration file that was used by master, right?
