Abstract: Layered clustering offers cluster-like load balancing for unmodified NFS or CIFS servers. Read requests sent to a busy server can be offloaded to other servers holding replicas of the accessed files. This paper explores a key design question for this approach: which files should be replicated ? We find that the popular policy of replicating readonly files offers little benefit. A policy that replicates readonly portions of read-mostly files, however, implicitly coordinates with client cache... (Update)
