I just stumbled across this thread, so I will repost something I wrote in
2017 about mirroring of venti. I had the need to create the union of two
venti servers, so I wrote a client that copies individual venti blocks,

Thanks Noam for that summery; it's of great help.

Code serves as a better single source of truth than 9fans. If you rely on 9fans
for accuracy, it's understandable to be upset when the quality of posts is
lacking. Accurate documentation is crucial when 9fans' quality declines.
If everyone shirks responsibility for documentation, the problem wil

Code doesn't lie. So code is the source of truth. Anything you say about how
things work which doesn't match reality, is therefore just wrong or a lie.
Noam is right in most of his text.
But I have to add that the following sentence should be taken with some grain
of salt.

Naom, 9fans isn't a single source of truth, but rather is a place for holding
discussions.
I see this as a documentation problem. If people can't find information easily,
they ask. Without credible documentation, the cycle never ends. We

I don't need your permission to think whatever I like, and there are
tons of other things I can do, like informing you that you're a us

My point is accurate information should be easy to find and read, like in a
wiki. Mailing lists are for discussions, not for searching answers. It’s ideal
when discussions lead to action items that improve the overa

When you generate bullshit with an LLM and then post it without reading
it, nobody thinks the LLM is stupid. We think *you* are stupid.

Having procedures detailing how to administer Venti mirroring on a Plan 9
system in a wiki seems reasonable. Here is a formatted example of an SOP. I am
sure something better could be created.

Thank you very much guys, there are some helpful answers,
even though this thread got a little messy. (didn't see that coming)
Charles Forsyth, since you are using venti/mirrorarenas,
if you don't mind, I would like to know what your venti.conf looks like.

venti/mirrorarenas is undocumented, and I couldn't find any topic here,
which goes into more detail.
So I am curious how does it work,
how does one to set it up, so the arenas get mirrored automatically,
and why do you use it instead of fs(3) mirror?
