are there any good documents on the implicit requirements for librados
calls?

I can write a file, if it doesn't exist successfully.
I can write_full a file, and it works (but many of my files will need to be
chunked off disk, not enough RAM)
I can append to a nonexistent file and it works.

I *cannot* write to a part of an existing file (overwrite a section of it
or write past it's current size) --> Errno 95
I *cannot* append to an existing file --> Errno 95
I *cannot* trunc an existing file (nor a non existent file) --> Errno 95
(what is the point of this then??)

any ideas / where can one see more detailed semantics of what operations
are allowed and when?

The librados C API does not really go into any detail about errors and why
things happen as they do.
This behavior seems similar whether I am admin or a separate user.

Thanks for any pointers.
Cary
