Thought I'd get these out now, even though I'm not yet through the snapshot-merge or shared-snapshot patches yet. The attached tarball includes: 1) (hopefully) easy-to-use cluster locking functions 2) changes to existing snapshot/exception store API. This is a subset of what was proposed before. I tried to include only the portions necessary to allow the implementation of a wrapping cluster-aware exception store. 3) A cluster-aware exception store (makes snapshots cluster-aware) On top of these patches I hope to stack the snapshot-merge patches. I'm about half-way through those patches now. I'm not yet sure of the modifications that will be required... Problems arise when dealing with the fact that the merge deletes exceptions from the exception store - this makes cluster snapshots harder. brassow
