[Gluster-devel] AFR arbiter volumes

[Nagaprasad Sathyanarayana]

Thanks Ravi for nicely explaining this. A question on the following section;

"If 2 bricks are up and if one of them is the arbiter (i.e. the 3rd brick) and it blames the other up brick, then all FOPS will fail with ENOTCONN (Transport endpoint is not connected). If the arbiter doesn't blame the other brick, FOPS will be allowed to proceed. 'Blaming' here is w.r.t the values of AFR changelog extended attributes."

Q: under what circumstances arbiter brick does/does not blame the other brick?

Thanks
Naga
