&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;hy ,<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;okay , then you need an inode based version
of the Fileserver ...<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;i think (but not sure , cause i always compile
by myself ) the AIX<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Package<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;on www.openafs.org is NAMEI based , because
there is no AFS Version<br>
&gt; &gt;of<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;the<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;v3fshelper in that package . so you should
download the source<br>
&gt; &gt;package<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;and<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;compile it with --enable-transarc-paths --enab=
le-fast-restart
this<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;should<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;generate a inode based Version .<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;maybe somebody on the List better knows ,
if it`s INODE based or<br>
&gt; &gt;not.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;after that , you just have to replace the
old binarys in<br>
&gt; &gt;/usr/afs/bin,<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;/usr/vice/etc and the /sbin/helpers/v3fshelper
with the new<br>
&gt; &gt;Versions<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;and<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;it should work .<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Sven<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Sven - I really appreciate your help. Thanks very
much.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Do I need to restart anything once I've copied
over the new<br>
&gt; &gt;binaries?<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;no Problem ...<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;if you also use a client on the server , you should
reboot your System<br>
&gt; &gt;.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;if you just use it as a Server just bos restart &quot;Se=
rvername&quot;
-localauth<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;-all<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;that`s it ..<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;Sven<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; I'd really like to avoid the reboot if possible because
this is a<br>
&gt; &gt;production<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; machine. Is it at all possible just to restart the client
(afsd)<br>
&gt; &gt;processes?<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; I thought you could do that with the new AFS?<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;no , it=B4s not possible under aix , just under linux ... (as far
as i know)<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;you can also leave the client running without reboot.<br>
&gt; &gt;i just don=B4t know the side effects off running an old Client<br>
&gt; &gt;on the same System with an new Server. on the other hand old Clien=
ts<br>
&gt; &gt;work perfectly with new servers , so a reboot should not be needed
.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Thanks Sven - I'm going to try that and keep my fingers crossed!<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; By the way, (sorry last question!) the binaries are scattered around
the src <br>
&gt; directory. Is there an option like 'make install binaries'!? or at
least an <br>
&gt; easier way to upgrade rather than copying each individual binary?<br>
