Hi Everyone,

I know this is bad practice to have the AFS cache folder on a shared partition with the rest of the system, but what are the caveats of having the AFS be on an ext3 filesystem in Linux, which is shared by
the rest of the system? I mean, besides filling the partition that
AFS uses for caching. Should the 5% root reserved percentage help
with that?

If you really are worried about that, there's always the path of
loop-mounting a big file with a filesystem image on it. Other
filesystems are available to you that way, too.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to use a swap file as well. I'll have to see how well the machines perform.

Jason
