Folks, This is probably a very naive question.
Is it possible to set zfs for bi-directional synchronization of data across two locations? I am thinking this is almost impossible. Consider two files A and B at two different sites. There are three possible cases that require synchronization: 1. A is changed. B is unchanged. 2. B is changed. A is unchanged. 3. A is changed. B is changed. While it is possible to achieve synchronization for the first two cases, case 3 requires special merging and is almost impossible. I am thinking it is the same problem even at the block level. Even to achieve 1 and 2 is a bit tricky given the latency between the two sites. Is there anything in zfs that makes it easier? Thank you in advance for sharing your thoughts.
