thank you russ.. i just check my CellServDB files on each file server. i just found one has wrong db info in the file. :$

it's generally good to have at least three DB servers (an odd number is important!). The two most common causes of the quorum error are not having a majority of the DB servers available, or, having a time split between them.

File it away for future reference!

This, of course, is wrong in the case of AFS DB-Servers. The master- server (usually the one with the lowest IP) has an additional half- vote. So no split-brain possible here.

When did we change this? All of the documentation I ever read said you needed three so you could have a quorum during such an outage...
