Re: Read from fastest node only

Hi Gionatan,

Thanks for that reply. Under normal circumstances there would be nothing that needs to be healed, but how can local-node know this is really the case without checking the other nodes?

If using local-node tells GlusterFS not to check other nodes for the health of the file at all then this sounds exactly like what we're looking for, although only for a GlusterFS node that is also a client. My understanding is that local-node isn't applicable to a machine that only has the client.

Does anyone know definitively what is the case here? If not I guess we would need to test it.

Thank you.

Maybe I am horribly wrong, but local-node reads should *not* involve
other nodes in any manner - ie: no checksum or voting is done for read.
AFR hashing should spread different files to different nodes when doing
striping, but for mirroring any node should have a valid copy of the
requested data.

So when using choose-local all reads which can really be local (ie: the
requested file is available) should not suffer from remote party
latency.
Is that correct?

Thanks.
