Configure Redundancy Zones for Members
Configure Redundancy Zones for Members
Group members into redundancy zones so GemFire will separate redundant data copies into different zones.
Understand how to set a member's
gemfire.properties settings. See Reference.
Group your partition region hosts into redundancy zones with the
gemfire.properties setting
redundancy-zone.
For example, if you had redundancy
set to 1, so you have one primary and one secondary copy of each data entry, you could
split primary and secondary data copies between two machine racks by defining one
redundancy zone for each rack. To do this, you set this zone in the
gemfire.properties for all members that run on one rack:
redundancy-zone=rack1You would set this zone gemfire.properties for all members on the other rack:
redundancy-zone=rack2
Each secondary copy would be hosted on the rack opposite the rack where its primary copy is hosted.
