<DIV>I want to make sure I understand how mogilefs works. You have an API which
sends</DIV>
<DIV>files to the tracker which gives the files a hash in the tracker database
and then sends it </DIV>
<DIV>to the mogfile storage daemon which holds the file. Does the file itself
actually go to to the tracker</DIV>
<DIV>or does it go directly to the storage server?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>When you request a file that request goes to the tracker and then to the
server server. Then the </DIV>
<DIV>file is retrieved to the API/webserver. Is that correct? Also, is there
anyway to have the storage servers send the file instead of sending to the
webserver?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks.</DIV></BODY></HTML>
