Hi Guillaume,
There shard algorithm is used for director. That's why it is working. I
tried same and able to get exact backend name in v_b_f.
new di_utc_0 = directors.shard();
di_utc_0.add_backend(be_utc_16);
di_utc_0.reconfigure();
But I can not use shard algorithm as requirement is to use fallback/nearest.
I understood your point that currently no function call available which can
provide exact backend.
Still if any work around for this then please let me know. It is really
required.
Thank you
Hardik
