FYI:

mount -t smbfs //bigserver/bigarchive /mnt -ousername=mylogin
cd /afs/.mycell/bigafsarchive  #bigafsarchive.vol
cp -rp /mnt/* .

...some files copied but then "can't stat /afs/.mycell/denali/..." error
appeared from the cp command. Then:

1. Linux 1.2.11 afs server and client hung
2. /afs was turned into /afs* (that's right looked like an executable)
3. Win 2K clients hung

/mnt was about 80 Gig or mixed linux/win filenames on a ntfs partition on
bigserver. no single file larger than 680Meg

looks like the quota's on /afs/.mycell/bigafsarchive were set at 5000 was
the problem. Set all to 0

went to Bill gates filesystem and removed uninteresting files. Ran it again
and it completed with minor gripes

The afs crashes are interesting

I'll continue abusing your filesystem

afs is neat.

Tedc

i.e. a cp crash took out afs

We also have the same kind of problem, And when I did rxdebug (fileserver)
7000,
it says

Trying XX.XX.XX.XX (port 7000):
getstats call failed with code -1

Any clue, here ?

Thanks in advance.

  Guess: you were running out of threads.
  
  rxdebug (fileserver) 7000
  when it's happening.

  Too many callbacks being broken, perhaps.

  kill -TSTP fileserver-pid
  
  turns up the logging, which goes in /usr/afs/logs/FileLog

  Look at the threads as above. the xstat_fs_test program also exposes some
  useful data
