The below description was added to the MySQL Cluster 7.4 source
code
and describes how new nodes are added into the heartbeat protocol
at
startup of a node.
The protocol to include our node in the heartbeat protocol starts
when
we call execCM_INFOCONF. We start by opening communication to all
nodes
in the cluster. When we start this protocol we don't know
anything about
which nodes are up and running and we don't which node is
currently the
president of the heartbeat protocol.
For us to be successful with being included in the heartbeat
protocol we
need to be connected to all nodes currently in the heartbeat
protocol. It
is important to remember that QMGR (the source code module
that
controls the heartbeat handling) sees a node as alive if it is
included
in the heartbeat protocol. Higher level notions of aliveness is
handled

Today I want to show you one of the new features included in the Metric detail page. We have used it in a variety of scenarios for customers and for our internal analysis. We’ll cover some of the usage cases and success stories in future blog posts; here I’ll just give an overview of the capability.
To begin with, suppose you found a metric with an interesting shape and wanted to know something about it. This is very typical, by the way – you will see a bump or notch in a graph and wonder what it means, what else bumped or notched or behaved oddly around this time. Here’s our metric. In this case, CPU makes a good demo:
Look, ma! There’s a bump in …
