Then let me clarify my statement. Such functionality does not exist
in OpenAFS. If someone has written a patch to implement such
functionality it should be submitted to gerrit.openafs.org and
discussed on openafs-de...@openafs.org to ensure that the design and
implementation are supportable by OpenAFS.

Maybe I missed a point or two, but I wish I could remove and unmount a /vicepX partition while fileserver keeps on running. The last weeks I needed to redo our iSCSI storages and that implies a lot of mount/unmount/redo partitions of our OpenAFS fileservers. Each time I need to add/remove a partition, the safe way was to stop the OpenAFS fileserver, mount/umount the partition and restart the fileserver. As I do not want to be the night owl, I did it in usual work shift - which did annoy our users as service was broken a few minutes. Is there any way to do this a better way? (IMHO DAFS is only for volumes, not partitions, or?) Thank you. MfG, Lars Schimmer |
