Try comparing to the 'vos listvldb' output. The buserver determines the volume list in EvalVolumeSet2(), which calls ubik_VL_ListAttributesN2() to assemble the list of volumes in the volume set. lisvldb should be using the same vlserver routine as the buserver. -Ben _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
