This message appears at each fileserver start, but can safely be
ignored.

You can get the text by translate_et:

~: translate_et 5376
5376 (u).0 =3D no quorum elected

The server could not register his IP-addresses at the vldb. This
requires a write access to the database and is therefor only possible at
the sync-site.
"no quorume elected" means your database servers could not find a sync
site among them. Reason may be inconsistent /usr/afs/etc/CellServDB
files or a network problem.

~: translate_et 267275

The ptserver database is in a bad state. (The fileserver tries to get
the information about system:anyuser at startup.) =
