I had some trouble with discon mode. I compiled an RPM from the 1_5 branch in CVS. I can "find . -type f | cat > /dev/null", then I can fs discon offline. Problems that I had:

This suggests that you didn't cache the directory - either it was skipped by the find, or the callback on it had been expired by the time you went offline. Pinning should solve these kinds of issues.

* I tried running my newtests perl scripts, but that failed with some perl errors.

Were these issues related to the filesystem, or other problems? Are those tests available somewhere?

* vi complained of multiple swap files when trying to edit the config file for my test suite.

Odd. Can you get an fstrace log of what vi was trying to do when it complained - I can vi whilst disconnected without any problem.

* fs discon online said I didn't have the proper permissions when run as root.

Did you have tokens? The error code you're getting is UAEACCES, which suggests not.

* "fs discon online -force" made AFS freeze

Again, strange. Did you get cmdebug -long output to see if it's hung on a lock, or alt-sysreq-t output to see where each process is blocked?

Thanks,

Simon.
