Read will get the newest content. If the read arrives during the write interval, it will wait for the write applied.

However read() is always satisfied from the OSD file on the file system, so if a read arrives during this interval. Will the read get the stale data?

Shouldn't the read go to the journal for the latest data? > > Please point me out if my understanding is incorrect, thanks very much. > > Best regards, > James Pan > > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users at lists.ceph.com > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com -- Best Regards, Wheat
