We're looking for other AFS users who are running AFS on HP800 Series machines. We've had a series of problems, not limited to but including disappearing vice partitions (specifically, /vicepa is either not mounted at boot, causing the fileserver process to exit due to too many errors; or /vicepa disappears after the fileserver has been running for hours, for no apparent reason). On many occasions the fileserver can not be restarted without rebooting the machine. A bos status reports that the fileserver is "currently shutting down" -- it stays that way for a long (long long long) time. "shutdown -r" then hangs at an HPUX message: "Warning: Some processes wouldn't die" and the machine has to be hard booted. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Is anyone running AFS on HP800 Series machines? Is anyone else running AFS on HP800 MP machines? (We've got an MP with 3 CPUs running AFS client and server both and have been unable to determine if anyone else has tried this. We have not had good results thus far, though both HP and Transarc have been and continue to be helpful.) If not on 800 Series, can anyone share experiences with HP 700 Series as AFS fileservers? Thanks. Kim Kimball ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
