Hi all, As discussed in the Vancouver Summit, we are going to drop the bay lock implementation. Instead, each conductor will call Heat concurrently and rely on heat for concurrency control. However, I think we need an approach for state convergence from heat to magnum. Either periodic task [1] or heat notification [2] looks like a candidate.

How to make periodic task high available? 1.We can run several periodic tasks. 2.Or we can use a leader selection mechanism to make only a periodic task running and other periodic tasks waiting. Shall we make periodic task a independent process? How to make periodic task high available? Regards, Hua Wang -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
