I just built openafs from CVS (as recomened by Mr. Altman and with a
patch from Mr. Brashear) on sun4x_510.
It installed fine, but as soon as afs started, a salvage started (normal
operation) and seems to be in the "salvaging filesystem" state forever.
Also, I don't see the salvager process running like I do on my other
systems (during the salvage.) If I run the salvager -force manually
(not sure if this is good to do or not) it finishes after writing to the
SalvageLog, but bos still thinks that the salvager is running.
If I then bos shutdown; pkill -9 bosserver; /usr/afs/bin/bosserver, the
same thing happens again with bos seemingly stuck in "salvage mode."
There is no data on this fileserver, so I'm not in a huge hurry to get
it working and I can always revert to an older build. But can anyone
recomend a way to usefully debug this issue? Running salvager without
the -force results in:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/afs/bin]# ./salvager
Exiting immediately without salvage. Look into the FileLog to find
volumes which really need to be salvaged!
I assume bosserver should note that message and immediately start the
fileserver process, but that doesn't seem to happen. And as I said,
manually forcing a salvage of an empty vice partition doesn't seem to
help either.
Could this be a result of changes within CVS? Or the patch attached to:
http://rt.central.org/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=25747

Is there a way to force bosserver to start the filserver without running
a salvage (I thought thats what the --enable-fast-restart option was
for)?

machine is currently up in this state:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/afs/bin]# bos status afs1 -local
Instance fs, currently running normally.
Auxiliary status is: salvaging file system.
Instance buserver, currently running normally.
Instance ptserver, currently running normally.
Instance vlserver, currently running normally.
The vlserver and ptserver appear to be working fine, there are no
unusual messages in VLLog, BosLog, PtLog or BackupLog. The SalvageLog
contains only:
