MogileF...eplicate(3)

💖 MogileFS::Worker::Replicate — the manual page, but make it cute 💖

okay so bestie, you opened the User Contributed Perl Documentation page for MogileF...eplicate(3) (yes the title got squished by the man page formatter, we don't talk about it 🫶) and honestly? it's short, it's sweet, and it's giving unsung hero of your file storage. let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

MogileFS::Worker::Replicate — literally just replicates files 💅

like. that's the whole job. that's the vibe. no cap.

---

✨ OVERVIEW ✨

so this process has one task and it's obsessed with it: it replicates the files that are enqueued in the file_to_replicate table. that's it. that's the entire personality. 🎀

the replication policy — aka the part that decides which devices to replicate to — is pluggable 👑, which is fancy-speak for "you can swap it out." BUT. and this is the important bit, bestie, do not skip it:

only one policy actually ships with the server. just the one. so if you were picturing a whole menu of policies to pick from... no ma'am. 🙈

and if you wanna see that one policy, go look at MogileFS::ReplicationPolicy::MultipleHosts — it's linked down in SEE ALSO too, iykyk. 💜

• MogileFS::ReplicationPolicy::MultipleHosts — the one policy that actually comes with the server, main character energy fr fr 💅

and that's the whole page, babe. short king behavior. 🌈
