First you asked how to switch based on path prefix. Which is the answers
you got.

Now you talk about rotating between two source peers with the same content.

These are different topologies with very different config. As you have
noticed the directory split configuration will break a same-content
configuration.

What are you actually trying to accomplish?

Right now it sounds like you have two identical peers and want to load
balance between them?
