There appears to be nothing that is not in the Filelog of a server that
is running normally.

We get these non-crashes which stop all users on a server accessing
their afs volumes. Shutting down the server (sometimes requires hardware
reset) and salvaging fixes the the problem.
The real question is how can we avoid the unscheduled outages?
And why is a signal 6 entry in boslog followed by automatic salvage and
restart of the FS, nearly always followed within 24 hours with another
total lock up where as manually started salvages seem to keep things
happier for longer?
