1 SRV Service Discovery

Filer server

The Filer server also accepts SRV records (prepended with dnssrv+) to discover the master server:

 weed filer -master=dnssrv+_http._tcp.seaweedfs-master.consul

where _http._tcp.seaweedfs-master.consul is a DNS SRV record that returns the HTTP port of the master (or, alternatively, the gRPC port minus 10000).

The SRV record may return several master instances in order to join a HA setup. A comma-separated list of SRV records pointing to several master instances is not valid.
