Is this considered a bug and will be fixed eventually or is it a
"feature" of the namei file server?
I consider it a bug but it's only really of interest to use the RO on a
different partition than RW when you have only one server in a cell, and
only then if you have multiple disks in the server. It's not really on top
of the list of usage cases.
My concern here is not planned and deliberate action but accidents:
I need to evacuate RW volumes from server2 onto server1 which already
has a RO copy of some volumes somewhere. I overlook those RO volumes and
move the RW volumes onto some other partition of that server.
What if server1 now needs to be rebooted and the volumes need to be
attached during the startup process. This will fail according to your
earlier mail. Am I screwed now?
You can of course undo it, so, "screwed". It's not like the data goes
away.
