this is funny but recently I started to think again about how riak works and I thought I know more or less the basics ;]
but I start digging and again I read http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/tutorials/fast-track/Tunable-CAP-Controls-in-Riak/and then made few tests with riak bucket configured as follows N = 3 W = 3 I have 2 nodes running in my cluster so far (only 2 are connected) for test and I can still write with hinted handoff. I updated the data and I wrote again with same key - I got success. I changed properties on per request basis and I set w=1 I stopped first node (so I had only one running) and put new key and value. I started first node and query for the key and I got data from both nodes. I did the same with new key again this time with w=3. and again it was successful. what is the real difference between N and W. if hinted handoff always save data for later synchronisation can write ever fail. are there any differences between first write and later updates. I hope it is not really stupid question pozdrawiam Paweł Kamiński kami...@gmail.com pkaminski....@gmail.com ______________________
