Hi,

On one of our fileservers, /afs is empty.  (We're running the AFS client
on the fileserver because I sometimes do client operations there.)  All
of our other servers and clients seem fine.

I looked through the AFS log files and didn't see anything obvious (but
I could have missed something).  The /usr/vice/cache partition is ext3.

CentOS 5.6, OpenAFS 1.4.14.1, 64-bit

$ ls -la /afs
total 8
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Apr 14  2010 ./
drwxr-xr-x 34 root root 4096 May 26 19:16 ../

# service openafs-client status
afsd (pid 4320) is running...

# du -sh /usr/vice/cache
24M     /usr/vice/cache

# cat /usr/vice/etc/cacheinfo
/afs:/usr/vice/cache:900000

$ cat /etc/sysconfig/openafs
# OpenAFS Client Configuration
AFSD_ARGS=3D"-fakestat -stat 4000 -dcache 4000 -daemons 6 -volumes 256
-files 50000 -nosettime"

# OpenAFS Server Configuration
BOSSERVER_ARGS=3D


On another server (set up the same way):

$ ls -la /afs
total 15
drwxrwxrwx  2 root root 2048 May 17  2000 ./
drwxr-xr-x 33 root root 4096 May 26 19:20 ../
lrwxr-xr-x  1 bin  root   13 May 17  2000 cabi -> cabi.rfmh.org/
drwxrwxrwx  2 root root 2048 Jun 14  2011 .cabi.rfmh.org/
drwxrwxrwx  2 root root 2048 Jun 14  2011 cabi.rfmh.org/

# du -sh /usr/vice/cache
827M    /usr/vice/cache

Would it be safe to restart the AFS client and see if it fixes the
problem?  Since the computer is a server and I haven't figured out the
cause of the problem, I thought I would ask here first.

Thanks,
Dave
