        Hi,

        As many of you aware, Gluster Eventing feature is available in
        Master.
        To add support to listen to the Events from GlusterFS Clients
        following
        changes are identified

- Change in Eventsd to listen to tcp socket instead of Unix domain socket. This enables Client to send message to Eventsd running in
        Storage node.
        - On Client connection, share Port and Token details with Xdata
        - Client gf_event will connect to this port and pushes the
        event(Includes Token)
- Eventsd validates Token, publishes events only if Token is valid.


    Is there a lifetime/renewal associated with this token? Are there
    more details on how token management is being done? Sorry if these
    are repeat questions as I might have missed something along the
    review trail!


At least in the discussion it didn't seem like we needed any new tokens
once it is generated. Do you have any usecase?


No specific usecase right now but I am interested in understanding more details about token lifecycle management. Are we planning to use the same token infrastructure described in Authentication section of [1]?
If we use the same token as in REST API then we can expire the tokens easily without the overhead of maintaining the token state in node. If we expire tokens then Clients have to get new tokens once expired. Let me know if we already have any best practice with glusterd to client communication.

Thanks,
Vijay
