[OpenAFS-devel] bonnie++ problem on Linux w/ OpenAFS client

Hi,

I have a dual PIII Linux machine running RedHat7.2 with 2.4.9-13smp
kernel. It runs an OpenAFS-1.2.2 client.

When I run "bonnie++ -d /afs/slac/test -s 2g" on this machine I get after
a short while the following error:
	Writing with putc()...done
	Writing intelligently...Can't write block.
	Bonnie: drastic I/O error (write(2)): No such file or directory

This is the output from the entire bonnie++ session up to the error.
I am using bonnie++ version 1.02a.

This happens no matter what type of server I am using (I tried a
Linux/OpenAFS server and Solaris/Transarc server).
If I run the same test with the same AFS directory on a Solaris/OpenAFS
client, everything works just fine.

Has anyone any idea why this is happening?

Thanks,
          Alf.
