If you routinely run vos backupsys on all of your servers, you can usually recover enough space to make a volume clone by running vos backup on one of the volumes that's had some changes and freeing up the extra space taken by the old clone. Provided that you don't mind losing the old clone, that is. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
