hi guys, can anyone tell what is wrong with "Lost contact with file server " issue? that afs clinet is not in the same domain of afs server. the connection speed is up to 16MB/sec.
my afs server is Scientific Linux SL release 5.0 x86_64 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5 #1 SMP. i use openafs-server-1.4.6-58.SL5.x86_64 rpm. client kernel is 2.6.18-53.1.13.el5. that is SL5 x86, too. i use openafs-client-1.4.6-58.SL5.x86_64 rpm in clinet. following are clinet /var/log/message logs: Apr 17 10:03:53 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 10:03:53 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 11:34:47 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 11:34:47 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 11:35:11 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 11:35:11 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 11:45:43 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 11:45:43 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 11:45:59 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 11:45:59 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 11:56:40 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 11:56:40 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 11:57:02 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 11:57:02 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 12:07:36 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 12:07:36 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 12:07:51 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 12:07:51 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) Apr 17 12:18:32 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 12:18:32 hostname kernel: afs: Lost contact with file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) Apr 17 12:18:54 hostname kernel: afs: file server xxx.xxx.xxx.x in cell tiara.sinica.edu.tw is back up (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces may still be down) can anyone give me a hint to debug this issue? thank you. best, sam -- Sam Tseng Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics Tel.: +886-2-33652200 ext 742 Fax: +886-2-23677849
