No, that is what the "immutable bit" stuff is about.

This would also apply to the first "hosting" group.
What about the configurations?
My problem is that I make mistakes, lots of them, and spend
most of my time trying not to or fixing the ones I did make.
A tool that will change the configuration and perform the
copy, and restart would be cool.
Then again, one can mirror a server for backup
and have a script to
shutdown, re-sync, change config and restart

I think there was some other benefit regarding disk cache, libs or
something.
