i never tried it, but isn't this a situation where rsync's "--inplace"
parameter is useful? seems to be able to kinda binary diff on a
blocklevel. may such an approach could be used for afr self-heal as
well?
btw, just curious, the problems with xen do only occur after a node was
down, right? if i understand it correctly, as long as all afr nodes are
up the client would write to them in parellel, so that the nodes stay
in sync automtically at any time?
Cheers, Sascha
