    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-2703?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12749841#comment-12749841 ] 

Dan Berindei commented on ISPN-2703:
------------------------------------

Ah, sorry, I looked at the test's infinispan.xml but I didn't notice numSegments was set to 1.

Yes, this is expected (but perhaps under-documented). The consistent hash doesn't actually distribute keys among the nodes, it only distributes segments. Each key is mapped to a segment, and the segment is mapped to a list of owners. So if there is only one segment, all the keys will map to that segment, and all of them will have the same owners.
