Hi.
We have an odd situation come up in our AFS cell, and I'm not sure
what I need to do to correct it.
On May 29th, something happened to two AFS volumes which are both
on the same vice partition. The volumes had been mounted fine, but
suddenly they could not be attached. This happened at
site for the root.afs and root.cell volumes.
This could be on one of the database servers.
If you are going to shutdown the database servers. Shut them down
after the fileservers and restart them before the file servers.

Hello. A minor question here.
I was curious if there was some way to encourage clients to load-

about 10,000 times an hour. I wanted to move that volume to new
