The 'lock' in that message is referring to a very low-level fcntl lock, and has to do with the storage of files on disk, and the communication between the fileserver and volserver. Whereas the 'lock' I think you're thinking of is a VLDB entry lock (though honestly that lock didn't have much relevance in that situation, either), which involves different processes and is a much higher-level, more conceptual 'lock' in the AFS protocol. -- Andrew Deason adea...@sinenomine.net _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
