[sheepdog-users] Lock TTL/Timeout

[Fabian Zimmermann]

Hi,

is there some kind of ttl/timeout which would release a lock if qemu dies?

I did some tests and it looks like the lock is not removed automatically.

Would it be possible to

* add such a timeout
* block access if process doesn't own the lock?
* tell qemu to die if it is no longer the lock-owner?

I'm currently thinking about how I may add locking support to my
opennebula-sheepdog-addon.

Thanks,

 Fabian
