I still have this idea of implementing a replication aware cluster file system locking layer mode, where lock _requests_ would be inserted into (or at least in order with) the replicated data stream, so it could be replicated asynchronously in theory. IFF it can be made to work, that is probably several manyears developement, though -- roughly estimated ;) -- : Lars Ellenberg : LINBIT | Your Way to High Availability : DRBD/HA support and consulting http://www.linbit.com DRBD® and LINBIT® are registered trademarks of LINBIT, Austria. __ please don't Cc me, but send to list -- I'm subscribed
