Hi,
I definitely have not had more than one server node running at the same time (though there have been more than one client node running on the same machine). I suspect what is happening is that one or more of the network interfaces on the machine can have their address change dynamically. What I thought of as a GUID is actually (I think) an IPv6 address attached to one of the interfaces. This aspect of the folder name tends to come and go. You can see from the folder names below that there are quite a number of addresses involved. This seems to be fragile (and I certainly see the name of this folder changing frequently), so I think being able to set it to something concrete would be a good idea. Thanks, Raymond. *From:* Dmitriy Setrakyan [mailto:dsetrak...@apache.org] *Sent:* Tuesday, September 5, 2017 10:23 AM *To:* user <user@ignite.apache.org> *Cc:* Raymond Wilson <raymond_wil...@trimble.com> *Subject:* Re: Specifying location of persistent storage location Hi Raymond, Sorry for the initial confusion. The consistent ID is the combination of the local IP and port. You DO NOT need to do anything special to configure it. If you had different folders created under the work folder, you probably had more than one node running at the same time. Can you please make sure that it was not the case? D.

I pulled the C# client source code and searched in there and was not able to find it. Perhaps this is not exposed in the C# client at all? If that is that case, how would I configure this?

This field value survives during node restart. At the same time consistent ID may be set using IgniteConfiguration.setConsistentId() if you need to specify it manually. I'm not sure how to write in C# syntax, but I am pretty sure it may be configured.

If I look at IClusterNode I only see “Id”, which is the ID that changes each restart. Is consistentID a Java client only feature?

It is required because there is possible that 2 nodes would be started at same physical machine. Consistency of using same folder each time is provided by this property, ClusterNode.consistentID - consistent globally unique node ID. Unlike ClusterNode.id this parameter constains consistent node ID which survives node restarts. Sincerely, Dmitriy Pavlov сб, 2 сент. 2017 г. в 23:40, Raymond Wilson <raymond_wil...@trimble.com>: Hi, I’m running a POC looking at the Ignite Persistent Store feature. I have added a section to the configuration for the Ignite grid as follows: cfg.PersistentStoreConfiguration = new PersistentStoreConfiguration() { PersistentStorePath = PersistentCacheStoreLocation, WalArchivePath = Path.Combine(PersistentCacheStoreLocation, "WalArchive"), WalStorePath = Path.Combine(PersistentCacheStoreLocation, "WalStore"), }; When I run the Ignite grid (a single node running locally) it then creates a folder inside the PersistentCacheStoreLocation with a complicated name, like this (which looks like a collection of IP addresses and a GUID for good measure, and perhaps with a port number added to the end): 0_0_0_0_0_0_0_1_10_0_75_1_10_3_72_117_127_0_0_1_192_168_121_1_192_168_178_27_192_168_3_1_2406_e007_9e5_1_9cc8_92bc_50c9_6794_2406_e007_9e5_1_c5d8_af4b_55b2_582a_47500 , Within that folder are then placed folders containing the content for each cache in the system Oddly, if I stop and then restart the grid I sometime get another folder with a slightly different complicated name, like this: 0_0_0_0_0_0_0_1_10_0_75_1_10_3_72_117_127_0_0_1_192_168_121_1_192_168_178_27_192_168_3_1_2406_e007_9e5_1_a58c_2f32_8005_b03d_2406_e007_9e5_1_c5d8_af4b_55b2_582a_47500 How do I ensure my grid uses the same persistent location each time? There doesn’t seem anything obvious in the PersistentStoreConfiguration that relates to this, other than the root location of the folder to store persisted data. Thanks, Raymond.
