[Gluster-users] Gluster setup question

[Aleynikov, Serge]

Hi,

I am running several clients writing to local disk that are setup to
replicate data to N glusterfs server processes that use NFS for storing
this data.  I have the following questions:

1. Does every write of a process to a local directory managed by
glusterfs client involve syncronous replication of data to glusterfs
server?
2. Is it possible that if NFS is slow on the glusterfs server side, then
writing to local disk of a process on the glusterfs client's machine
would block?

Thanks.

Serge
