Roland did not specify an access pattern, but from context he may be considering the offsite copy as a backup. my understanding is that ceph is smart enough not to make writes block, when there are no other open readers of files - it returns as fast as local disk can acknowledge. what does ceph do if it can get a couple copies made quickly (but not the third remote copy) and all readers are in the local datacenter? -- Ryan Grant -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
