Re: Inconsistent data when a node goes down

Hi Luca, For any request Riak will ask 3 vnodes for an object's value (assuming N=3). If a majority of vnodes return "not found", Riak will return "not found" to the client. When a node is taken down other nodes can act as a fallback for that node. When a fallback node takes over for a primary nod

I think it has to do with how the vnodes are partitioned against your physical nodes. You really need a minimum of three physical nodes (or virtual machines) to deploy and or do any failure testing. -Alexander On Mon, Feb 28, 2011 at 13:29, Luca Spiller wrote: > Hi all, > > I've come across some
