Re: Where should I put posix-locks translator?

Hi Takashi,
 The configuration is perfect.
 But for less confusion (and less overhead), locking is not required over
namespace volume as its used just as a cache to hold the filenames, and NO
i/o is done over it. Posix locks is used only while doing I/O operations.

Regards,
Amar
