| Option | GCP_STORAGE_PREFERRED_COPY_SOURCE | |
| Description | Sets how to download segments from bucket storage when prefetching | |
| Default | false | |
        Sets how LogScale chooses segments to download from bucket
        storage when prefetching. If
        GCP_STORAGE_PREFERRED_COPY_SOURCE is
        false, the prefetcher will only download
        segments that are not already on another host. Otherwise, it
        will download as many segments as necessary to follow the
        configured replication factor. This should help avoid excessive
        bucket downloads when nodes in the cluster have lots of empty
        disk space.
