The logic would be somewhat complex, though, and it would need to get information about the "heirarchy" from someplace other than the VLDB, at least for the moment. -- Jeff ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
[OpenAFS] Hierarchic Replicating
Hi all, Is it possible to configure OpenAFS to use hierarchic replicating. My problem is that I want to replicate to one server in Europe and one server in Asia and use them to re-replicate the volumes to other servers in same continent. Any tips are appreciated. Thanks / Erland ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info

It could be done with the tools that exist but not easily or as intended. You could dump the readonly once it's replicated to the master in the remote location and then restore it to the other sites.
