The CMA will eventually be extended to query the SA directly if the local look-up fails. The intent is to keep these failures hidden from the end-user.
I see, it makes sense.
The SA cache does not use a failed lookup as a trigger to update its cache, but that could be added. My initial reaction is that it makes sense to do this.
Why not having a failed lookup as the --only-- trigger to update the cache? so the cache contains only paths that were demanded by some consumer. What is implementation you were considering, is it an SA replica having all those paths whose sgid is the local node gid?
