Hello, My test setup consist of two datacenters DC1 and DC2. DC2 has a offset of 10 as you can see in the following ring command.
I have two questions: 1) Let's say in this case I insert a key at DC2 and its token is, let's say 85070591730234615865843651857942052874, in this case will it be owned by DC2 ? and then replicated on DC1 ? i.e. who owns it. 2) Notice that the Owns distribution is not even, is this something I should be worrying about ? I am using Cassandra 1.0.12. Following is the ring command output: Address DC Rack Status State Load Owns Token 85070591730234615865843651857942052874 10.0.0.1 DC1 RAC-1 Up Normal 101.73 KB 50.00% 0 10.0.0.2 DC2 RAC-1 Up Normal 92.55 KB 0.00% 10 10.0.0.3 DC1 RAC-1 Up Normal 115.09 KB 50.00% 85070591730234615865843651857942052864 10.0.0.4 DC2 RAC-1 Up Normal 101.62 KB 0.00% 85070591730234615865843651857942052874
