Here is my question: Since the venti scores are SHA-1 hashes, can they be considered as UUIDs? I have two different venti servers and am storing different sets of databolcks on each. I am wondering whether a scenario will arise where server A and server B gives the same score for completely different datablocks. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards, Anoop
