Keeper in ClickHouse Server Now Starts Asynchronously with Node Connection
NowKeeper(as part ofclickhouse-server) will start asynchronously if it can connect to some other node. #30170 (alesapin).
Why it matters
This feature allowsKeeper to start asynchronously if it detects that it can connect to an existing node, improving startup flexibility and reducing downtime in distributed environments.How to use it
No explicit user action is needed;Keeper will automatically start asynchronously during clickhouse-server launch if it can connect to another node in the cluster.
