Here is my intial thought, and I would soon (before 15th) elaborate along
this line —
-
The scenairo, as I tried to post it the other day is “How best we can do
a filter” that would control accessing a) volume that could possiblly be on
multiple partitions b) folders c) a file/doc. And this has to be on a
portable volume so that (if I’m correct) even if someone from a different
domain want to import the volume(s) would only have the accesses given to an
user. Filter might need help from other usr lvl component(may be a service),
but to have a control at those level, it seems like the three main fields
( Disposition, Option, Access , flags … and others ) of the fileobject can
be used. I’ve seen a half-page doc on osronline, but a fairly complete
picture of how to correleate win32 priv. to the file-system level privilages
would of immense help.
-
How to, if any way(s), to control caching mechanism(s) from a filter ?.
This has to do with media server planning. There are a wide variety of
Adaptive algorithm(s) that can play a major role if we could use caching in
a semi-customed way ( detail later ). Also there are other places on the
storage stacks who takes their role in terms of caching.
Again may be the details are already laid out on some nt insiders, but as I
said I need to look at it. And finally, the tests, at least in my
experience(s) depends on how best these design issues and interaction
w/other componenets are understood.
So I will surely post some of the test scenairos before 15th, and hope to
have detail insight from you at the palo-alto seminar of yours…

Hi Prokash,
Thanks for the great questions. I expect that this information will be
disseminated both via a series of articles in The NT Insider as well as a
new document to supplement the FAQ.
Since I know that most of us work best with deadlines, I’ll use what you
can provide me with by the middle of July (15 July 2004). Once the initial
round is done, I’ll likely come back in 6 months and ask again.
Regards,
Tony

Hi Tony,
This is one more greate idea, just like the Filter doc, and faq doc from
osr. Many thanks !
Now how is your plan: in terms of by when you want infos from us; is it
going to be in a series or one shot etc. so that we could provide our
testing ideas etc ahead of time.
If you want the infos to be directed to you, it might be nice to have the
email address published though I’m sure anyone can find that out from
osronline site !. Or should we post the testing(s) we do here on this list.

Importance: High
A most excellent suggestion for anyone who develops file systems and
file system filter drivers. I’m trying to put together some articles on
testing file systems and file system filter drivers, so anyone who can
contribute, please send me a note. I’ll take the suggestions, questions,
thoughts, issues, concerns and other comments I receive to help shape some
material we can use on the list for pointers on testing.

Tony
