The reason it works on the local machine is that the Linux VFS provides that feature directly, without really interacting with Ceph. I am not sure what it would take to support that feature in a distributed fashion (or whether that's even possible with the current kernel APIs), but I created a ticket requesting this feature: http://tracker.newdream.net/issues/1296 If you wish to stay updated on the status of that feature, you can create a user account in the tracker and "watch" the ticket, then you'll be notified of any changes. -- 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
