[Pvfs2-developers] Caching in PVFS2

[Christina Patrick]

Hi Everybody,

I have searched the PVFS2 forums before and found one article that
said that PVFS2 does not do any client side caching
http://www.beowulf-underground.org/pipermail/pvfs2-users/2005-November/000992.html

I want to ask the everybody:

1. What are the types of caching employed in PVFS2?
2. What are the caching policies in PVFS2?
3. If I want to investigate further into this, where should I look
(documentation/files/papers)?
4. Also, how can I explicitly enable and disable caching in PVFS2?

I would really appreciate if somebody could patiently answer these questions.

Thanks,
Christina.
