Hi!

Yeah, me again. I like to thank you all first, to built up a AFS Cell is not as
easy as it seems.

Is it possible (in a easy way), to change a IP from the first (main) CellServer?
Background:
We set up first a test Server for our cell with a high IP (>.200). But after it
works, this server got our main server for database and files in our cell.
After a while I set up another database server with a lower ip (<.100) as a
backup for the database server.
But I think THIS was a big error, because now most of the clients take the
information from the backup server (in which the cell is RO) and not from the
first one. So we can't mount any new volumes in our cell, because it's readonly :-(

Point 2: We thought the 2nd server to takeover the management if the first gone
down. But while a reboot of the first (main) server, our cell hung and no client
worked well. Is this a kind of wrong thinking of us? Or a failure of OpenAFS

Cya
Lars
