Hello! Just an (probably not new) idea: server filedata explorer...
In its simplest, static and readonly incarnation: a utility going through inactive rvm and creating a symlink tree pointing to under /vicepa or corresponding..., possibly resolving mountpoints, resolvable inside the same server. Then all files on a stopped server become accessible to local "root" with their pathnames, even if still missing the metadata. It might help disaster backup/recovery in certain cases. To compare, dfs allows filesets on a server to be mounted as a *local* filesystem, good for troubleshooting and file-level backups. I assume that a readonly tool for Coda would be relatively easy to hack, making it say an open()/close() wrapper. Then it is just a matter of taste which application to use with such wrapper library. My 2c. -- Ivan
