[OpenAFS] AFS reinstall
Hello, I am trying to get our primary fileserver (running all the file,db,volume,authentication processes) back up after the machine was hacked. The server was running RH8 with OpenAFS 1.2.10. The system disks were wiped after backing up /usr/afs, and CentOS4(RHEL4) was installed. Using all the old config files and vice partitions, is there a problem with installing the latest stable version(1.4.1) OpenAFS rpms. Thanks in Advance, Gabe ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
[OpenAFS] MS Access and OpenAFS
Has anyone used an MS Access database from within OpenAFS? Does it work with multiple users? I'd heard some talk about AFS not supporting byte-range locking, and wasn't sure how MS Access fit into this.

[OpenAFS] UBIK error installing additional database server on 1.2.10
Hello, I'm getting an error after adding database functionality to a 2nd fileserver with OpenAFS 1.2.10. The error"Waiting for quorum election." fills up the logs on the server I was trying to add database server functionality to. I've read that this is a bug in 1.2.10. My question is if I add /usr/afs/db to the upclientetc process on the new db server, will this allow me to remove the db functionality from the first and ONLY db server. I looked at the files in the /usr/afs/db directory, and they are not the same. Also, is it safe to just scp that directory to the new server and run it as the dbserver with the original shut down. Thanks, --Gabe ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info

[OpenAFS] fs process doesn't exit until I send a signal 9
I had to shut down one of my AFS servers to replace a disk. When I issue a "bos shutdown" command, all the processes seem to shutdown, except for the fs process. When I "vos status" the server, it says that the fileserver has been disabled, and the sub-status is "in the process of shutting down". Is there something else I need to do. I only seem to be able to shut it down by using "killall -9 filserver" or "kill -9" the fileserver process number. This of course causes the volumes to be salvaged. Is there something else that I need to do? How long should it take to shutdown the fs process. I waited about 5 minutes before using "kill -9". Below is /usr/afs/logs/BosLog after the vos shutdown command: Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: fs:vol exited on signal 15 Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: upserver exited on signal 15 Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: buserver exited on signal 15 Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: vlserver exited on signal 15 Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: ptserver exited on signal 15 Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: kaserver exited on signal 15 Thu Feb 24 11:19:12 2005: fs:file exited on signal 9 And also, the BosLog after a "bos restart fs" Thu Feb 24 11:32:22 2005: Server directory access is okay Thu Feb 24 11:37:16 2005: fs:salv exited with code 0 Thu Feb 24 13:04:55 2005: fs:vol exited on signal 15 Thu Feb 24 13:11:47 2005: fs:file exited on signal 9 Thu Feb 24 13:17:28 2005: fs:salv exited with code 0 --Gabe Castillo [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
[OpenAFS] restoring volumes > 2GB
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the 2GB size limit applies to files correct? not volumes? I have volumes that are several hundred GB and have successfully restored them from tape. ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
[OpenAFS] re-installing a "lost" volume
Hello, I have had a data-loss issue on the RAID with the root AFS volume. I have recovered the data, and transferred it to a different fileserver. I am curious if I can modify the VLDB to tell AFS that the volume is on a different machine. Does this pose any potential problems (particularly because the volume isn't available when I have to modify the VLDB)? If this is unsuccessful is there a problem with modifying the VLDB back to its original setup?
