Do you allow direct PTS editing, or is the database solely emitted? If the latter, consider scripting pt_util and simply periodically replacing the database by stopping one site, writing a newer(*) database and letting a new quorum push it to the other sites. (*) - ubik epoch and version determine if your database is current; you'd need to be careful to be newer than the last one. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
