[OpenAFS-devel] namei vs. inode on AIX

Ok, I'm confused. I cannot compile with --disable-namei-fileserver for
some reason. At one point the inode fileserver was the default on AIX,
but that doesn't appear to be the case any longer. I have a partition
on my test server that previously housed volumes with the inode
fileserver. When I run configure with the --disable-namei-fileserver
option, then check src/config/afsconfig.h, AFS_NAMEI_ENV is still
defined as before.
So my questions are:
1. Can I actually disable AFS_NAMEI_ENV with configure?
2. If I uncomment line 8 in src/config/afsconfig.h should I get an
inode fileserver?
3. How can I determine if the binaries in /usr/afs/bin are inode or
namei capable? (symbols?)
4. How can I determine if the volumes on the partition are ok, and I'm
not just getting an error because they are corrupt? (I don't really
care about the volumes because it's only a test server, I just want to
determine if the error is valid)
5. What is actually creating the log /usr/afs/logs/FileLog?
Fileserver? That is where the error messages are output, example:

but partition /vicepa seems to contain
volumes which don't use the namei-interface; aborting
Thanks in advance,
