Hello,

I have 2 indexers and 2 sites I want all 4 indexers to have a searchable copy of the buckets and replicated.

Had PS they did this

site_replication_factor = origin:1,total:4
site_search_factor = origin:1,total:4

From what I read and the cluster course this is wrong it will work but is not the way to do it.

I think it should be

site_replication_factor = origin:2,total:4
site_search_factor = origin:2,total:4

Any suggestions?

Cheers

With only 4 indexers, those two sets are equivalent, but the second is clearer about the intent.
