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.

Run 'bos status -long'; I bet you'll see that there are a number of
restarts, indicating that the fileserver is always exiting abnormally,
triggering a salvage.

What would indicate restarts?

Then look at the FileLog and see _why_ the fileserver is aborting.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/afs/logs]# cat FileLog
cat: cannot open FileLog
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/afs/logs]# ls -l FileLog
FileLog: No such file or directory

There does not appear to be a fileserver directory.
Hmm... could it be that the fileserver isn't starting?

If I start the fileserver manually the bos status output does not change, although I assume part of that could be due to the way the bosserver spawns the various fs processes.
