[Gluster-devel] Can self-healing be based on lookup and readdir requests ?

2012-03-13 Thread Xavier Hernandez
Hello again, I'm trying to implement self-healing functionality in my translator. I've been browsing source code (basically mount/fuse and cluster/afr translators) and I see that fuse seems to always make a lookup call each time it sees a file or directory, at least the first time. If that's
