The target date was listed in the slides.  End of Year 2008.


Will there be a beta release for testing?


As with any major release, we always have a beta testing period.

I have no comment on that point, but...

Assume yes.

Re: [OpenAFS] Great big honkin' volumes -- anyone using?

Hello all,

It was good to see many of you at the conference last week.  I'll expect 
to see all of you there next time!


If the answer to this question is redundant with something that was 
handled there I apologize for not making it until Friday.

Is anyone using AFS volumes near the limit of 2TB in 1.4.x?  1TB?


Yes we are -  I've used 1.4 TB volumes using Linux fileservers
for about 8 months without problems.  I just started using some
1.95 Tb volumes sitting on Solaris ZFS fileservers  - most of these 
volumes contain lightly used data.




If so, what experiences, please?


Things are fine for the most part - as you might guess volume moves
take a while - My general rule of thumb is to expect 200 GB per
hour for moves - so a volume with 1 TB of data in it takes 5 hours.

I had an issue with using up and moving large files - I hope to
submit a bug to Sine Nomine later this week regarding this.

Thanks!

Kim

[ P.S. back at work for several hours and have not deleted even one 
volume ... yet!  An auspicious start ... (-;   ]
