We are using a similar backup scheme to TSM, and we're forced to use old
AIX backup servers since the TSM API hasn't been ported to
OpenAFS/Linux.
I'm in the early stages of redesigning the backup system. We have SAN
attached disk available, and my plan is to do a butc backup to the SAN
disk,

Dear All
We're facing a difficult problem with our planned deployment of AFS here
at the University of Pretoria. I'm hoping that we can gain some insight
into how things work on other similar networks. I apologise in advance for
the long post, unfortunately I can't think of a short way to

Eric,
Yes it is expensive. RPI is working toward a solid disaster recovery
plan. We consider our cell to be mission critical, as it isn't only
user disk being served.
Getting the entire cell up and running in the shortest time is important
to us, and we're making progress in that area. I see

Looking at the public CellServDB, I can't help wondering how AFS servers
are connected at other universities? Are we overly firewalled?
Yes.
Do other HPC centres maintain separate AFS cells for cluster users?
No.
Any thoughts?

Hi Simeon,
Port forwarding would do the trick, but AFS requires several ports. How
about setting up a VPN to allow external clients access to your AFS servers?
I use www.natnix.com.

Hi Simeon,
I am not an expert in AFS but I have setup an afs cell behind a firewall
that was publicly available. However, it is by far not the easiest setup
to install and it definitely makes life harder in troubleshooting.
Also, there can be some complications when fileserver machines have more
