Speaking of Cuttlefish, I don't think my statement that I'd run into this issue in Cuttlefish was correct: I don't see similar code to the one I patched there, and indeed, (accidentally) starting a Cuttlefish mds on an otherwise Dumpling cluster enabled recovery to complete where Dumpling's mds wouldn't. So, no backporting for this patch of mine, I think. -- Alexandre Oliva, freedom fighter http://FSFLA.org/~lxoliva/ You must be the change you wish to see in the world. -- Gandhi Be Free! -- http://FSFLA.org/ FSF Latin America board member Free Software Evangelist Red Hat Brazil Compiler Engineer -- 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
