Hi Tom,
I recall mentioning in Ohio, XCB doesn't have a private view of client callback
state. I'm unsure it's a good tradeoff to serialize XCB messages for reliable
delivery. You would be changing the goal from consistency is preserved to

I'm sorry, I just see the situation with X clients that have cached
data with registered callbacks.
Hi,
In principle my question is about the feasibility of the following setup:
There is a SAN (Coraid), all the partitions vicepa, vicepb, ... are in
fact lvm volumes on top of it.
Two boxes are connected to it, the boxes run a xenified debian distro.
On each of them there is one xen guest being

I am experiencing a problem with our failover setup. We have two Openafs

fine. Both machines have a common IP address which is activated on the main

There's a bunch of things wrong with stock maildir; I've done a lot of
work with it.
AFS does not provide a method for failover, in the strictest meaning of
the word. A replicated volume residing on a different file server than
the original volume, would be the closest to what I think you mean.
Although replicating every volume in a cell is not recommended. So I
