Enabling Management Node High Availability
------------------------------------------

To make your infrastructure more resilient and redundant, you can create a high availability configuration of three nodes.

Management node HA and compute cluster are tightly coupled, so changing nodes in one usually affects the other. Take note of the following:

#. All nodes in the HA configuration will be added to the compute cluster.

#. Single nodes cannot be removed from the compute cluster as they are included in the HA configuration. In such a case, the compute cluster can be destroyed completely, but the HA configuration will remain. This is also true vice versa, the HA configuration can be deleted, but the compute cluster will continue working.
