I.e. how you want a single SD disconnection and reconnection to be handled? Do you want to fail the whole job? or continue on remaining one? what about a disconnected SD and its partially written volume on reconnection? do you want SD reconnection in this case? do you want a single or multiple jobs (in case if simple job mirroring) stored in catalog db? do you want to fall back to other volume/job during restore errors? etc. etc. etc. all of these requirements you do not want to discuss are the important part of the functionality. I can implement a functionality which community reject. This is not what I want. > I don't even care for having the 2nd copy in the catalog: I just want > the same exact volume file on two physical drives. Then use low-level block replication (storage array or storage cluster - sds or even os-level like drbd). It is fast and proven to be extremely reliable as Enterprise class solutions. But we are discussing about application-level replication or RAIT like solution.
