I'm having problems with my OpenAFS server similar to that reported in
an earlier post (But the fix in that thread is not working for me):
http://www.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2006-July/023070.html
My configuration is that I have a multi-homed server acting as a
router/gateway/firewall with both an intranet and Internet ethernet
connection. I have used the NetRestrict file to try to limit openafs to
using only the Internet address (so that the intranet address won't be
given as a server address to external afs clients).
When I do:
vldb_check -servers /usr/var/openafs/db/vldb.DB0
I get:
Ubik header size is 0 (should be 64)
MH block 0, index 1: 172.16.1.11 83.227.241.4
Server ip addr 0 = 83.227.241.4
Server ip addr 1 = 83.227.241.4
Server ip addr 2 = 83.227.241.4
Server ip addr 3 = MH block 0, index 1
Scanning 980 entries for possible repairs
I think this may be a root cause of the problems I'm having. Is there
some way I can change the VLDB to only list one server with IP address
83.227.241.4 (my Internet address)?
Is there a bug in "vos changeaddr" or similar which causes this
multitude of entries with the same IP addresses?
FWIW the actual problem is that the fileserver crashes with:
VL_RegisterAddrs rpc failed; The IP address exists on a different
server; repair it
VL_RegisterAddrs rpc failed; See VLLog for details
Fatal error in library initialization, exiting!!
causing an endless loop of salvaging.
I'd be grateful for any help,
/Erland
