[Opensim-users] grid operation

[Paul Fishwick]

Right. But what, exactly, are these servers doing?  I guess I am trying
to get at more of the architectural details of what types of messages are
sent among servers (over the network and to the database(s)). For
example, there are the UGAIM servers in grid mode. Does the grid's "A"
server hold all of the assets on your region that  you plugged into the
grid? Or does your region database (on the same computer as your
opensim.instance) take care of that?
