Hi,
Just wanted to know if mnesia subscribe on system events can raise a

{mnesia_error, Format, Args}

In such case ?

Regards

This talk describes mnesia_ext, an extension which allows arbitrary storage engines to be plugged into mnesia, and how Klarna used this to migrate parts of its database to LevelDB. We will also talk about our experiences with LevelDB, and some improvements we have made.
