Abstract: Ficus is a distributed file system designed to scale up to very large networks of Unix systems, ranging from portable units and workstations to large file servers. It provides very high availability for read and update, utilizing an optimistic one copy availability policy with conflict detection and automatic reconciliation of the name space. Ficus is packaged as a pair of layers which can be configured on top of the Unix file system, coexisting with other extended file system features using... (Update)

...availability at the expense of consistency by allowing updates to proceed in all partitions. This approach is similar to that of Ficus [7]. L # is not directly aware of partitions, nor does it directly ensure that every partition has a complete copy of all the logs. Instead, L...
