Re: [Gluster-devel] io recovering after failure

[Krishna Srinivas]

If you have the AFR on the server side, and if this server goes down then
all the FDs associated with the files on this server will return ENOTCONN

side it would have worked seamlessly. However this situation will be
handled when we bring out the HA translator
