Hello, I have a situation where one volume seems to be repeatedly destroyed. Nothing major, just the volume that my home directory is on ;-) After digging around for a while, I think I found a message that gives me a lead about what is going on.
In /usr/afs/logs/Filelog I found a message about a CopyOnWrite failure. If I'm reading the message properly, the FDH_READ() call is getting in EINTR rc. I'm puzzled about this, because according to one book, the read call that is inside the FDH_READ() macro should be restarted, if an EINTR occurs, and according to a couple of articles on the web, the read should be checked for EINTR and restarted where it stopped. I don't have any clues yet about why the read is being interrupted..... The volume that's always damaged is home.kdaaker, which then seems to destroy home.kdaaker.backup when the bos salvage is done??? (Damage being everything in the first level directory on the volume becomes an orphan).
