This is similar to a problem we have seen in Linux 2.6 and 1.4.2. On one host, I vi a script, and on another host I try to run it, and it gives me a File Not Found, and an ls -l shows the ? like you're getting...

I think this was discussed here [1] and is (or might be) fixed in 1.4.5.

If this isn't akin to your problem, we may need more details...

Cheers,

Hello all,

I tried to copy 2 files onto an afs volume, but that didn't work too well for some reason. (I never had this problem before.)

projection_3a.tif" E212: Can't open file for writing

ls -al shows:

?---------  ? ?    ?             ?            ? projection_3a.tif
?---------  ? ?    ?             ?            ? projection_3.tif

Anyway, I tried to remove etc. the fiels but that doesn't go anywhere.
Basically most things say the files are not there, but with ls I see them show up.



any ideas ?


thanks,

Ron

Namei has another advantage: if you salvage a single volume it's not
necessary to read all inodes, but only those pseudo-inodes (file names)
under the subdirectory belonging to the volume group. This is much
faster.

An overhead traversing the AFSIDat-tree to open a file certainly
exists, but I suppose it is neglectible compared to the advantages.


Does the inode server slow down as the partition size grows? Am I going
to see a noticable slowdown on the inode server on a 250GB or 500GB
partition?

Thanks,
Jason
