Container Sync

class swift.container.sync.ContainerSync(conf, container_ring=None, logger=None)

Bases: swift.common.daemon.Daemon

Daemon to sync syncable containers.

This is done by scanning the local devices for container databases and checking for x-container-sync-to and x-container-sync-key metadata values. If they exist, newer rows since the last sync will trigger PUTs or DELETEs to the other container.

The actual syncing is slightly more complicated to make use of the three (or number-of-replicas) main nodes for a container without each trying to do the exact same work but also without missing work if one node happens to be down.

Two sync points are kept per container database. All rows between the two sync points trigger updates. Any rows newer than both sync points cause updates depending on the node’s position for the container (primary nodes do one third, etc. depending on the replica count of course). After a sync run, the first sync point is set to the newest ROWID known and the second sync point is set to newest ROWID for which all updates have been sent.

An example may help. Assume replica count is 3 and perfectly matching ROWIDs starting at 1.

First sync run, database has 6 rows:

  • SyncPoint1 starts as -1.
  • SyncPoint2 starts as -1.
  • No rows between points, so no “all updates” rows.
  • Six rows newer than SyncPoint1, so a third of the rows are sent by node 1, another third by node 2, remaining third by node 3.
  • SyncPoint1 is set as 6 (the newest ROWID known).
  • SyncPoint2 is left as -1 since no “all updates” rows were synced.

Next sync run, database has 12 rows:

  • SyncPoint1 starts as 6.
  • SyncPoint2 starts as -1.
  • The rows between -1 and 6 all trigger updates (most of which should short-circuit on the remote end as having already been done).
  • Six more rows newer than SyncPoint1, so a third of the rows are sent by node 1, another third by node 2, remaining third by node 3.
  • SyncPoint1 is set as 12 (the newest ROWID known).
  • SyncPoint2 is set as 6 (the newest “all updates” ROWID).

In this way, under normal circumstances each node sends its share of updates each run and just sends a batch of older updates to ensure nothing was missed.

Parameters:
  • conf – The dict of configuration values from the [container-sync] section of the container-server.conf
  • container_ring – If None, the <swift_dir>/container.ring.gz will be loaded. This is overridden by unit tests.
allowed_sync_hosts = None

Parameters:path – the path to a container db
container_sync_row(row, sync_to, user_key, broker, info, realm, realm_key)

Sends the update the row indicates to the sync_to container. Update can be either delete or put.

Parameters:

  • sync_to – The URL to the remote container.
  • user_key – The X-Container-Sync-Key to use when sending requests to the other container.
  • broker – The local container database broker.
  • info – The get_info result from the local container database broker.

True on success
