Running AFS on DICE FC3
This is fairly straightforward, as most the of the heavy lifting is done via LCFG and DNS.
- Include
dice/options/afs-client.h
in your machine's profile
- Wait for the LCFG to propagate
-
om updaterpms run
-
om afs start
If this
doesn't work, check your kernel version matches the version in the
OpenAFS header file. You may also run into
problems if your machine has a new kernel installed, but hasn't yet rebooted (in this case, the set of installed modules won't match the running kernel, and things just won't work)
You can customise assorted cache parameters through LCFG. In particular, things can be made faster if the cache is on a seperate partition. See man
lcfg-afs
for the gory details.
