The client gets the file layout information when the file is created (i.e. the RPC response from the MDS) . It doesn't have _any_ access to "/". It can't even stat "/". > Will the data of this client still go to the pool "P", that is, does "/a" inherit the dir layout transparently to the client when following the steps above?
