This will not simulate a network partition. It will simulate Riak not running on the given node. REJECT means a response is "sent back" to the requestor, saying that the connection was rejected. Using DROP as your target would more closely mimick a network partition as any attempts to contact the node in question will be met with silence. -- Soren Hansen | http://linux2go.dk/ Ubuntu Developer | http://www.ubuntu.com/ OpenStack Developer | http://www.openstack.org/ _______________________________________________ riak-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com
