Plamen Jeliazkov commented on HDFS-13767:
-----------------------------------------

Thanks for the responses, [~vagarychen]!

Thank you I think I understand (2) and (3) now. 

Regarding (4) -- Thanks for pointing out it could be worse. I understand where 
you are coming from. Do you think we could end up hitting that scenario anyway 
in the case of a slow / dying / dead ObserverNode? The client would just end up 
calling _msync()_ on another node, no? I agree that we would just end up going 
to a heuristic (configuration of some timeout interval). I also suppose if we 
had enough healthy ObserverNodes then its may not really be a concern to have a 
bunch of calls queue'd if we could actually support holding them all across 
hosts vs spontaneous client network traffic trying to find a "good" host.



> Add msync server implementation.
