Re: [Moosefs-users] Fw: Re: chunkserver over several offices

Hi

This is a difficult question. If preparing a failover solution had been that
easy, we would have done it already. And it is not. On the other hand we've
been using MooseFS for more than 5 years with this architecture in a very
busy production environment and it just works. Let Thomas finish his
failover solution :) I am sure it will satisfy the needs of all users.


Regards
Michal

Hi,

Great news indeed, however, isn't it more important to implement reliable
failover solution and fix the single point of failure?

So far there is no real working failover solution, not even Thomas Hatch's
one. Its just that mfsmetalogger can't be trusted.
