DB Server ?

&gt; <br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; If you want to increase the overall space
available for AFS <br>
&gt; &gt;volumes,<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;&gt; you can simply extend the /vicepa<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; &gt;Or create a /vicepb &nbsp; ;-)<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Thanks for your replies. I have created a new partition
and am trying <br>
&gt; &gt;to<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; copy over the old one with vos move but get the
following error:<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; # vos move -id 536870987 -fromserver hostA -frompartition
/vicepa<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; -toserver hostA -topartition /vicepd<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Could not lock entry for volume 536870987<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; &nbsp; u: no quorum elected<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Does anyone know what that means?<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;If you have multiple DB-Servers, you need to upgrade
to 1.2.11 since<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;there is a bug which prevents the DB-Servers from synchronizing
from<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;each other after 2004-01-09 or so.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; I really wish there was another way! How do I check which
version of AFS <br>
&gt; &gt;is<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; installed? I tried :<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;Didn't you install it yourself? What platform are you running
on? Where<br>
&gt; &gt;did you get your AFS servers from?<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; # rxdebug rsl155 7001 -version<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; Trying 161.2.249.91 (port 7001):<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; AFS version: Base configuration afs3.5 3.60<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; but that looks wrong to me.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; Assuming I upgrade, is it just as simple as doing a make
install, or <br>
&gt; &gt;have I<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; got to go and do all my configuration over again?<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;Configuration should not get lost if you upgrade - you basically
only<br>
&gt; &gt;need to replace the server binaries.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;HTH! Tino.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; I didn't install it - someone else at my work did. It's running on
AIX 4.3.<br>
&gt; So in order to upgrade, will the make install know not to overwrite
my <br>
&gt; config files, or should I copy the binaries myself? If so which binaries?
<br>
&gt; Just those in /usr/afs/bin ?<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Thanks.<br>
