> Currently all the {{GetXXXRequestHandler}} (where XXX stands for Blob, Head, References and Segment), on the server discard client requests which cannot be satisfied (i.e. the requested object does not exist (yet) on the server). A more transparent approach would be to timely respond to all client requests, clearly stating that the object was not found. This would improve a lot debugging for example, because all requests and their responses could be easily followed from the client log, without needing to know what actually happened on the server.
> Below, a possible implementation for {{GetHeadRequestHandler}}, suggested by [~frm] in a comment on OAK-6678:
> {noformat}
> String id = reader.readHeadRecordId();
> if (id == null) {
>     ctx.writeAndFlush(new NotFoundGetHeadResponse(msg.getClientId(), id));
>     return;
> }
> ctx.writeAndFlush(new GetHeadResponse(msg.getClientId(), id));
> {noformat}
