In AFS-1, each time the VFS tried to open a cached file it would have Venus contact the server to make sure that the file was still valid.What is the problem with this approach? How do AFS-2 and AFS-3 solve this problem?
What will be an ideal response?
This approach generated many network calls, even when files had not been modified.
In AFS-2 and AFS-3, the server is responsible for ensuring that each client has the most upto-
date copy of its files. Each server keeps track of the files the client caches.When a file is
modified, the server performs a callback to clients that have that file cached.When a client
receives a callback, it knows that its cached version is no longer valid and requests the newest
version from the server.
