It's printing them from the in-memory volume structure. "fs >checkservers" is the command to see which servers are down.

(i.e. preference dropped when the server was down) A bit of background - I'm trying to track down a problem whereby a number of my server-clients seem to not be recovering from server failure, even though they seem to be hanging on access to read-only replicated volumes. -- Nathan ------------------------------------------------------------ Nathan Neulinger EMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Missouri - Rolla Phone: (573) 341-4841 CIS - Systems Programming Fax: (573) 341-4216 _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/openafs-devel
