Abstract

At any instant, a channel's path signature reflects the last successful path used to access file data. During the course of processing a request from an upstream site currently not connected to the target file, the downstream site will establish a connection to the upstream site and then include in its request response a path signature constructed by adding its signature to the channel's path signature.
