[Gluster-devel] AFR minimum write suggestion

[Martin Fick]

I would like to suggest that the AFR translator have a
feature added to it allowing one to specify the
minimum required numbers of subvolumes to which every
write action must succeed on in order for the
translator to report a success.  

So, for example in the AFR config an option such as :

volume afr
  type cluster/afr
  subvolumes one two three
  option minimum.writes 2
end-volume

would ensure that at least two of the nodes get every
write update.

Thoughts,

-Martin
