You need the database servers to be up while you shut down/start up the fileservers, since one of the databases in question records which fileservers have which volumes and fileservers register/unregister volumes with that database during startup/shutdown. If there's no need for the database servers themselves to be shut down, you can leave them up, but I'm not sure that actually gains you anything. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
