[OpenAFS] restoring volumes

[Dexter 'Kim' Kimball]

Ron,

Specify a different value after "-name"

The volume will be restored to the specified server and partition -- as =
a
read write volume.

The ".backup" volume name extension won't work (it's reserved) and is
causing your "restore name" to exceed the 22 char limit.

If you want to restore over the existing RW volume put it on the same =
server
and partition, use the same name, and specify -overwrite.

Otherwise give it a new name (homestaff.cowboy.R e.g.), mount it, fix =
the
existing volume ... etc.

Kim

     Hello,
    =20
     I dumped a volume on an old afs server and try to restore=20
     it on the new server. This is what I see:
    =20
     [root@afs-1 vicepb]# vos restore -server=20
     afs-1.csc.depauw.edu -partition /vicepa -name=20
     homestaff.cowboy.backup -file=20
     /vicepb/homestaff.cowboy.backup -cell afs-1.csc.depauw.edu=20
                                                                    =20
    =20
     vos: the name of the volume homestaff.cowboy.backup=20
     exceeds the size limit
    =20
     Does vos restore create the volume ?  I didn't see the=20
     volume homestaff.cowboy.backup.  There is a volume called=20
     homestaff.cowboy on the new server though.
