Re: [OpenAFS] Re: trouble deleting corrupt volume

[Chaskiel M Grundman]

There are certain kinds of corruption that the salvage does not deal with correctly on platforms where the namei server is used (like linux, macos, *bsd) At the current time, the only way to remove the volume is to find the root of the tree on the vice partition that it is stored in and remove it with rm -rf.

I suggest:

repeat the vos zap -force
rm -rf /vicepa/AFSIDat/I=/INF+U



#include <sys/types.h>
#include <inttypes.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <afs/param.h>
#include <afs/afsutil.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
lb64_string_t tmp;

 unsigned long vol;
 if (argc < 2) { fprintf(stderr, "Usage: nametodir vol\n"); exit(1); }
 vol=strtoul(argv[1], NULL, 0);
 (void)int32_to_flipbase64(tmp, (int64_t) (vol  & 0xff));
 printf("Component is %s\n", tmp);
 (void)int32_to_flipbase64(tmp, (int64_t) vol);
 printf("Component is %s\n", tmp);

 exit(0);
}

The following program may be used to map a volume id to the tree in which it is stored (link it with libafsutil.a). Note that volumes in the same volume group (a volume and its backup. an RW and any RO's on the same partition), are stored in the same tree and are located based on the RW's ID (aka the parentid)
