Now, when I run the initialization script on AIX, /etc/rc.afs; i got an
error that /usr is jfs2 and it needs to be jfs.
Hence, we created a new partition /afs1 with jfs and now updated the
cacheinfo to
/afs:/afs1/vice/cache:50000
when I run the initialization script AIX restarts. But when I revert back
the info in "cacheinfo", it does not.
Hence, debugging the rc.afs script, exit the script before running the afsd,
we diecided to go for -memcache
we ran: /usr/vice/etc/afsd -memcache -chunksize 28, the system restarts
again.
I am unable to run the script to run the cache manager and go ahead with
this.
Has anyone come across this issue? Please help us resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Srikanth
