They would only show up - in the window behind her - whenever mention is made of communication or file replacement between LOCLSS sites.<BR/><BR/>The stength of the LOCKSS approach depends on the existence and reliability of network connectivity between LOCKSS nodes. As network connectivity is engineered for high reliability, availablility, etc., this is not usually a problem.<BR/><BR/>This strategy does introduce a great deal of additional, necessary complexity - thoughtfully hidden outside the basket in this demonstration.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
