hi all,

I'm sorry if this email contains too simple questions and problems. I'm a really newbie to openafs and it was a hard work to be here with afs setup, it's a bit strange to me.

I've made a test setup using this howto: https://cs.stanford.edu/wiki/csdcf/Projects/KerberosAFS (+ howto from openafs.org, and many many fight with the setup).
The system is based CentOS 5.2 + official 1.4.7 rpms.

- there is admin user
- there is test user
- there is one partition, which is the root.cell and root.afs (do I say well, are them same?)
- I can connect with windows client


Here are the problems:

1. windows client is mapping a drive, I can write is, but it's so slow, it's started with ~4 MByte/s and ended with ~11Mbyte/s (~100 Mbit/s). Is there any limit or something like that?

2. How can I add a new partition to the cluster for extending the storage size? I gues it should be mounted on /vicepa, it's done.

3. What happens, if the somehow one of partitions disappears (eg. hdd get wrong, like a node server),l what is the right protocoll in this case, is there more possibilities? Did I miss something is the docs?

4. Is there any piossbility to replicate meta data's (root.afs?), and also is there any failover solution about it? I'm sorry, I'm working only with Lustre, I know only its terminology.

Thank you,

tamas
