Hi, I note that the documentation (e.g http://docs.openstack.org/juno/install-guide/install/apt/content/swift-initial-rings-distribute.html) suggests copying the ring files: - account.ring.gz - container.ring.gz - object.ring.gz to the various other nodes. Now this means that the [account|container|object].builder files only exist on the original/"master" proxy. I'm wondering if these should be copied around too (maybe to all additional proxies), as it seems like you need these to make changes to the existing ring (e.g replacing/moving that failed original proxy...). Cheers Mark
