Abstract
A request to perform a write operation on a file stored in a distributed file system that includes a first and second storage server and an arbiter system may be received. An identification of whether whether one of the first or second storage servers is available to perform the write operation and that the other of the first or second storage servers is not available to perform the write operation may be performed. An identification of whether the arbiter system is available to record the write operation may be performed. In response to identifying that one of the storage servers and the arbiter system are available and that the other of the storage servers is unavailable, the write operation may be performed on the file in view of write operation data that indicates whether the one of the storage servers is consistent with the arbiter system.
