I've had a single fileserver running DAFS with less valuable data for more than a year, but as the only issue it saw was some interaction issues with an AFS client of Harald's, I had no fear of finally upgrading the rest. That server was running 1.6.2. The rest were running 1.4.something. I emptied three servers, upgraded them to NetBSD 6.1.3 and OpenAFS 1.6.5 from pkgsrc, adding a patch for davolserver. (I'll update the package to 1.6.6 in my copious free time this week, maybe, unless I'm beaten to that.) Then I dumped another fileserver at them. As far as I can tell the other two are working flawlessly. At least by comparison.

So there may be something odd with a volume, I just don't know which one yet. For what it's worth, when I did the restart this morning, the backupsys continued on its merry way. -Tracy
