I applied the patch
http://www.openafs.org/cgi-bin/wdelta/cachemgr-blacklist-down-servers-20081010?diff=1&f=u

But still no cigar :( How are your results?

$ ./sob -n 30000 -o 1000 -s 1k -b 1k -w
Writing 30000 files of size 0.001MB, blocksize 1kB
Failed to create file testfile.12344 : Connection timed out
[Exit 1 ]
$ /usr/openafs/sbin/rxdebug localhost 7001 -v
Trying 127.0.0.1 (port 7001):
AFS version:  OpenAFS 1.4.8pre2-pdc51 built  2008-10-14 

:( :( What is the logic beind the BlackListOnce()?

http://www.openafs.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/openafs/src/afs/afs_analyze.c.diff?r1=1.25&r2=1.31

And I think I want logging of servers marked up/down to syslog in the
usual way before I want this near production.

Been staring too long at at the diff now.

Harald.
