Switching Between Clusters
If multiple clusters are registered in GridGain Nebula, you can switch between clusters by using the Select cluster control on the top toolbar.
Adding Connections
To add a connection to the cluster, in the Connections widget:
-
Click the required client/protocol chip.
-
Proceed to define the new connection.
Sharing Clusters
You can have access to a cluster as:
-
User - a regular user who can view the cluster that had been shared with them individually or via a team, as well as utilize the actions that appear in the cluster’s context menu.
-
Owner - the user who had created or attached the cluster. Owners have extended cluster access rights, including sharing the cluster with teams or users, suspension, removal, etc.
As a cluster owner, you can share that cluster with individual users and/or teams.
Sharing with Users and Teams
To share the current cluster, click Share above the Details widget. The Share cluster dialog opens.
The dialog lists users and teams that already have access to the cluster.
In the entry field across the top of the Share cluster dialog, start typing a GridGain Nebula user’s email, an LDAP ID, or a team name. As you type, the incremental search mechanism displays suggestions in a drop-down list. Select one of the suggested users or teams. Alternatively, type the identifier to the end, then click [Enter]. You can add multiple users and/or teams in a single operation. When done, click Share.
The users and teams you have entered appear in the corresponding sections of the Share cluster dialog. The system notifies the users and team members that a cluster had been shared with them. To close the Share cluster dialog, click Close.
Stopping a Cluster Share
As a cluster owner, you can stop sharing your cluster with a team or with an individual user (remove access to the cluster that had been previously granted to that team or user).
To stop sharing a cluster with team(s) and/or user(s), click Share above the Details widget.
IN the Share cluster dialog that opens, select Stop sharing from the context menu by the required team or user name. In the confirmation dialog, click Stop sharing.
Activating and Deactivating Cluster
If your current cluster is active, you can deactivate it by selecting the Deactivate option from the context menu next to the Share button, then clicking Deactivate in the confirmation dialog.
If your current cluster is inactive, you can activate it by clicking the Activate button at the top of the screen, then clicking Activate in the confirmation dialog.
Initializing the Cluster
To initialize the attached GridGain 9 cluster:
-
Click Initialize in the top right corner.
The Initialize cluster dialog opens.
-
Add configuration and license file(s) using the Browse button or by dragging and dropping.

Optionally:
-
Expand the Advanced settings section.
-
Clear the Cluster Management Group (CMG) nodes same as MS nodes check box.
-
Manually assign MS and CMG nodes.
-
To reset the MS and CMG nodes to default configurations, click Reset to default.
-
-
Click Initialize.
The dialog closes. Once the initialization process is completed, the cluster status in the My Cluster screen changes to Active.
Changing Encryption Definitions
If the cluster has been created with the transparent encryption enabled, you can change its encryption definitions (the CMK and, optionally, the Access policy) after you rotate the CMK in your AWS account or create a new CMK.
To change the encryption definitions:

Select Data encryption from the context menu next to the Share button.
