Re: ForCES Protocol Implementation Issues

["Joel M. Halpern" <[e-mail]>]

You can get all the property information, if you need to.

However, if a backup CE takes over for a primary, one of the first
things it HAS to do is to get all the content of the LFB
tables.  That is because the backup CE needs to know what the FE
thinks it is doing.  If the new CE has not been coordinating with the
previous primary, then it will need to get all the info.
