So is the current general practice to connect to a known node, e.g. by ip address?
If so, what happens if that node is down? Is the entire cluster effectively broken at that point? Or do clients simply maintain a list of nodes a just connect to the first available in the list? Thanks in advance. Cheers Chris On 3 Mar 2010 16:43, "Eric Evans" <eev...@rackspace.com> wrote: On Wed, 2010-03-03 at 10:05 -0600, Ted Zlatanov wrote: > I can do a patch+ticket for this in the cor... I don't think voting is going to help. Voting doesn't do anything to develop consensus and it seems pretty clear that no consensus exists here. It's entirely possible that you've identified a problem that others can't see, or haven't yet encountered. I don't see it, but then maybe I'm just thick. Either way, if you think this is important, the onus is on you to demonstrate the merit of your idea and contrib/ or a github project is one way to do that (the latter has the advantage of not needing to rely on anyone else). -- Eric Evans eev...@rackspace.com
