[Nbd] Data integrity in nbd / using a LUKS-encrypted device



Dear nbd,
Here's a question of mine I would be thankful to receive your answer to.

To what extent is data integrity ensured when using nbd? When writing data to a remote device, is data corruption possible in following scenarios:
1) power supply fails on client machine
2) network connection is lost/interrupted
3) above scenarios plus writing to a LUKS-encrypted device - is it possible/likely that the LUKS header could get damaged, or corruption will be limited to the file being written only.
Thank you for any comments and have a good day.

Kind regards,
Wojciech Jablonski
