For each object that rgw stores it keeps a version tag. However this

you're trying to solve though.

We have two datacenters. I want to have two regions that are split across both datacenters. Let's say us-west and us-east are our regions, us-east-1 would live in one datacenter and be the primary zone for the us-east region while us-east-2 would live in the other datacenter and be secondary zone. We then do the opposite for us-west.

What I was envisioning, I think will not work. For example:

- write object A.0 to bucket X in us-west-1 (master)
- us-west-1 (master) goes down.
- write to us-west-2 (secondary) a _new_ version of of object A.1 to bucket X
- us-west-1 comes back up
- read object A.1 from us-west-1

The idea being that if you are versioning objects, you are never updating them, so it doesn't matter that the copy of the object that is now in us-west-1 is read-only. 

I'm not even sure if this is an accurate description of how replication operates, but I thought I'd discussed a master-master scenario with someone who said this _might_ be possible... assuming you had versioned objects.
