As I understand it, the new node isn't responsible for the range until the migration process is complete, so I presume cleanup will do nothing in this case. This is so the old node can continue to serve the range during the bootstrap, and in case of bootstrap failure. > 2) After adding a new machine, how can I make sure that the key migration is > completed ?
