Thanks Christian I think thats exactly what I needed - I will try and make 2 new rings and see how that works. You wouldnt per chance know how I would limit the replicas, ie 2 in the Paris region and 1 at HQ? I only want one replica to goto the HQ region...
So for instance, if I have two nodes in the my HQ region and I only want one replica, would I run the following commands: swift-ring-builder account.builder add hq-ip#1:6002/sda3 100 swift-ring-builder account.builder add hq-ip#2:6002/sda3 100 If the nodes in Paris are as is follows: he minimum number of hours before a partition can be reassigned is 1 Devices: id region zone ip address port replication ip replication port name weight partitions balance meta 0 1 1 10.7.5.51 6002 10.7.5.51 6002 sda3 100.00 384 0.00 1 1 1 10.7.5.51 6002 10.7.5.51 6002 sda4 100.00 384 0.00 2 1 1 10.7.5.52 6002 10.7.5.52 6002 sda3 100.00 384 0.00 3 1 1 10.7.5.52 6002 10.7.5.52 6002 sda4 100.00 384 0.00 That for some reason doesnt seem correct to me but what do I know. Also, if you notice i my command for the name i gave hq-ip# - do I have to use the naming convention r#z#-ip when I add?
