Could you still set up a 2nd fileserver using openafs+SL4.5 with the ubik bug? If the volumes could be vos moved to another server, that leaves the DB server data. Assuming some downtime was ok, would it be possible to shutdown the DB server, copy the DB files to another server with the same IP and start the server back up? Is the format of the DB data files compatible between IBM AFS on windows and Openafs on Linux? If not, is there a way to convert the files or dump and import them? does the ubik bug prevent a master from being elected in all case when more than one server is involved? I'm just trying to think of other options. Jason _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
