[Pvfs2-developers] Re: unifying config files

[Sam Lang]

Hi Murali,

I have one minor change I'd like to make to this patch.  Instead of:

<ServerOptions>

	Option Logfile myhost1 /tmp/s1
	Option StorageSpace myhost1 /sandbox/sto
	Option Logfile myhost2 /tmp/s2
	Option StorageSpace myhost2 /pvfs/storage
</ServerOptions>

I'd rather have:

<ServerOptions>
	Server myhost1
	Logfile /tmp/s1
	StorageSpace /sandbox/sto
</ServerOptions>

<ServerOptions>
	Server myhost2
	Logfile /tmp/s2
	StorageSpace /pvfs/storage
</ServerOptions>

I think it will make the server-config.c parsing code a bit easier,  
and allows for encapsulation of a bunch of options for one server in  
a specific context.  I've been playing with the code a bit and should  
have something done soon.  Objections?
