hi all: when MDS is to restart , it will replay journal, and client will replay 'unsafe requests' that have replyed from that MDS while the metadata change maybe have not been writen to disk actually. I have a question that if there are many clients, how ceph keeps consistence? because multiple clients may operate on the same file, just like one to create a file and another to delete it. And how the ceph deal with such a situation that one or more clients fail in the process of clientsreplay ? once it happen, the whole system may be untrusty. if we have hundreds and thousands of clients , does it may take a long time to recover? -- 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
