Re: 1.4.2: 'riak-admin reip' no longer works?

2013-10-21 Thread Brady Wetherington
Huh. I thought we were supposed to use force-replace instead of reip? I remember having a discussion a few months back about the documentation and we cleared it up a little. Is reip the same as force-replace, or is it more...quick-and-dirty? Is it deprecated? -B. On Mon, Oct 21, 2013 at 11:33

2i Index Durability/Resilience

What happens to your 2i indexes if you do a write and one of the nodes you're trying to write to is down? http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/dev/using/2i/ says: - When you want or need anti-entropy. Since 2i is just metadata on the KV object and the indexes reside on the same node, 2i

allow_mult vs. 2i

2013-09-25 Thread Brady Wetherington
I've built it a solid proof-of-concept system on leveldb, and use some 2i indexes in order to search for certain things - usually just for counts of things. I have two questions so far: First off, why is Bitcask the default? Is it just because it is faster? Or is it considered more 'stable' or

Well, I'm not sure, and I'm new to Riak too, but I *think* you'd need to set allow_multi on the bucket. -B. On Mon, Sep 23, 2013 at 4:01 AM, Gints gints.gaili...@gmail.com wrote: I did a PUT, and the vclock that came back was: a85hYGBgzGDKBVIcypz/fgZJFylnMCUy5rEyNOdtOc2XBQA= Then I read

I've been working with Basho to get those documents updated - in short - I have a pull request that makes using Riak with EIP's in Classic-EC2 much, much easier. They have accepted it, but it has not been merged with the mainline yet. I'm assuming you are *not* on VPC, is that correct? If so, you

Oh, I thought the rule was if you have one more node than your n_val, then you can be sure each replica will be on a distinct node - is that not correct? Also with n of 2 I would wonder how you would handle r and w - my guess would be you *could* set them to 1 each, and just deal with possible

Practical Riak cluster choices in AWS (number of nodes? AZ's?)

2013-08-11 Thread Brady Wetherington
Hi all - I have some questions about how I want my Riak stuff to work - I've already asked these questions of some Basho people and gotten some answers, but thought I would toss it out into the wider world to see what you all have to say, too: First off - I know 5 instances is the magic number
