Re: sql node and storage node concept, state of cluster.

thanks for your reply, jon.

>Data definition statements aren't automatically distributed between storage nodes.

>1. create the database and the tables on one storage node

the doc said load the sql file into sql node , not storage node. what's the difference here?
the database loaded into the nodes will get fragmented automatically ?

also, from the FAQ , "the minimum recommended number of computers in a MySQL Cluster is four: one each to run the management and SQL nodes, and two computers to serve as storage nodes. "
correct me if i am wrong, but it looks like i need to have another SQL node and mgm node to provide the redundancy. so that adds up to 5 computers for a reasonable setup.
