✨ SWIFT-CONTAINER-RECONCILER 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for swift-container-reconciler — it's a General Commands Manual situation, and it's literally the OpenStack Swift container reconciler. yes, the name is a whole mouthful. no, we're not shortening it. iykyk 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS

swift-container-reconciler CONFIG [options]

like. that's it. that's the whole vibe check. you hand it a CONFIG and maybe some options, and off she goes ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION

okay so this daemon has one job and she is obsessed with it: she goes and finds objects that are chillin' in the wrong storage policy and moves them to the right ones. 🦋

and if a delete request showed up at the wrong storage policy? she doesn't just toss it — she applies it to the right one. queen behavior, honestly. 👑

she operates on a queue, and it's basically the same kind of queue the object-expirer uses. they're giving coworker energy. 💜

now, the lil plot twist: discovering that an object is in the wrong policy? that's not her. that's the container replicator's whole thing. the container reconciler is the daemon that handles them once they happen — she's the cleanup crew, the afterparty, the main character of the second act. 🌈

and here's the tea, bestie: just like the object expirer, you only need to run one of these per cluster. one. singular. that's it. don't be out here running twelve of them, she's not built for that kind of chaos. 💀

⭐ OPTIONS

  • -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic "what does this do again" button, and she will absolutely tell you. 🙈
  • -v, --verbose — log to console. she's chatty now. she's telling you everything. 🗣️
  • -o, --once — only run one pass of daemon. one and done, babe. hit it and quit it. 🍓
