docs(clustered): warning for manual horizontal scaling #5500

Closed jdockerty closed 1 week ago

jdockerty commented 2 weeks ago

We need a mention here that horizontally scaling Clustered without using the AppInstance can cause issues, most likely on the compactor and ingester.

This is best handled through the AppInstance in Clustered as it handles all of the appropriate internal wiring for scaling IOx components, setting the correct environment variables etc.
