Distribute Translator provides the functionality of aggregating the
storage from individual nodes and giving the unified view of the total
storage. It stores the layout (which says, which file goes into which
node) of the directory in extended attributes of the directory. And
directories are created on all the nodes. Files are created on only
one of the nodes.

Suppose that directory A, with its layout as its extended attributes, has a sub-directory B and there is a file C in directory B.
now the location of file C depends on the layout of A or B? In other word, could i find file C from directory A's extended attributes?
does a root directory's extended attributes (layout) contains the location of files under it and its subdirectories,sub-sub-directories...?
