The -force flag removes a volume even if it cannot be attached (brought
online), which can happen either because the volume is extremely damaged or
because the Salvager functioned abnormally. Without this flag, this command
cannot remove volumes that are not attachable. See also the

Is OpenAFS a good filesystem to run an Oracle database on?
We are setting up two Sun 880's at the moment.
Database design has not been done yet, so I am not sure if it will be read or
write intensive.
Is AFS better for a mainly read only filesystem?
Thanks

Lousy, actually. No byte range locking, to begin with. Other performance
overhead.
IIRC Oracle has its own replication mechanism.

Try replacing the -id datafiles.20040102 with its actual ID.
vos zap -server hippo -partition /vicepb -id 536937070 -force
That worked, thanks!

I'm not sure why you want to create a directory for a fileserver, and assume
you understand that it's not necessary and that you have some reason for
doing so.
Try this:
fs lq /afs/mycell
fs lq /afs/.mycell
I notice in the output you reference:
try mounting at /afs/.mycell/etc. Then release
You don't mention the other half of the ACL. Who has wilk permissions?
In general AFS doesn't care about ownership/mode bits -- ignores them
entirely on directories, but does apply the owner mode bits to all users,
including the owner. (Doesn't seem relevant here but sometimes good to
know.)
I thought that if the name of the volume were used as an argument to vos
zap that the zap would fail if the volume name couldn't be resolved to an
ID via VLDB IOW if I use the numeric ID who needs the VLDB, but if I
use the name instead the VLDB entry is required so that the numeric ID can

Well, it shouldn't be able to work otherwise. But I was referring to the

Not quite. The owner of a directory has implied administrator rights in that
directory. That may be relevant here. Or not. Whatever.

Hi,
I'm trying compile openafs-1.2.13 on sun ultra1 (sparc64), i'm using
gentoo linux but there isn't ebuild with support for sparc.
My steps was:
#sparc32 /bin/sh
#./configure --prefix=/usr --host=sparc-unknown-linux-gnu
--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share
I'm about to reimage the root drive on an AFS fs db server. It's going
from an ancient RH release to RHEL 3 with all new OpenAFS RPMs and such.
I am hoping to do it without having to recreate all of the RO volumes on it.
I'd really appreciate it if people with experience at this kind of upgrade
