The redundant-shards template is used for pure sharding configuration that uses 2 physical mounts with 2 copies (which means each shard stores a copy of each artifact). To learn more about the different sharding capabilities, refer to Filestore Sharding.
redundant-shards template configuration
If you choose to use the redundant-shards template, your binarystore.xml
configuration file should look like this:
<config version="4"> <chain template="redundant-shards"/> </config>
What's in the template?
While you don't need to configure anything else in your binarystore.xml, this is what the redundant-shards template looks like under the hood.
<chain> <!-- template="redundant-shards" --> <provider id="cache-fs" type="cache-fs"> <provider id="sharding" type="sharding"> <redundancy>2</redundancy> <sub-provider id="shard-state-aware-1" type="state-aware"/> <sub-provider id="shard-state-aware-2" type="state-aware"/> </provider> </provider> </chain> <provider id="shard-state-aware-1" type="state-aware"> <fileStoreDir>shard-state-aware-1</fileStoreDir> </provider> <provider id="shard-state-aware-2" type="state-aware"> <fileStoreDir>shard-state-aware-2</fileStoreDir> </provider>
Details about the sharding provider can be found in the Sharding Binary Provider section.
Details about the state-aware sub-provider can be found in the State-Aware Binary Provider section.
