Thanks both for your answers - very informative. I think I will set up a test
Ceph system on my home servers to try it out.
I have one more question:
Ceph seems to handle failed nodes well enough, but what about failed network
links? Say you have a few systems in two locations, connected by a single
link. If the link fails, you will have two isolated networks, each of which
will think the other has failed and presumably will try to go on as best it
can. What happens when the link comes back up again? What if the same file
was modified by both isolated clusters when the link was down? What version
will end up back in the cluster?
Thanks again,
Adam.
