I've got a problem I stumble upon with certain intervals; I've copied 
some files using samba to a directory that exists on a branch that's 
running out of space. So, I want to put files on another branch, and 
create the directory structure neccessary in another branch.
example: /storage is a merge of /vault/disk1 and /vault/disk2, both rw.
I want to put files under /storage/misc on disk2, but disk2 has the 
directory structure already (/vault/disk2/misc). So I create 
/vault/disk1/misc.

Now, the problem is, /storage does not notice this! When I now copy 
files to /storage/misc, it still puts them on disk2!

This is my example /proc/mounts (as you can see, disk1 has the highest 
priority, and should be used).
none /storage aufs 
rw,xino=/vault/disk1/.aufs.xino,br:/vault/disk1=rw:/vault/disk2=rw 0 0

Any way I can manually invalidate whatever cache is used to perform the 
aufs -> branch lookup? Or should I use udba=inotify?

Kindest regards, Jørgen.
