Gerry/Krishna, In this specific setup what has been discussed, there is no need for any kind of locking. The namespace lock what unify uses is when glusterfs takes the responsibility of merging namespaces of multiple storage bricks. In this specific situation (for AFR) there is no namespace management. Hence even creation and read/write will be handled by server VFS. You have to ensure that the primary child of AFR is the same for all webservers.
When you say primary child are you meaning the first subvolume entry? ... subvolumes client1 client2 client3 client4 ... Regards, Gerry
