Fwd: [OpenAFS] best practice for salvage

I would think you could also do individual volumes salvages
which, although slower, would not result in downtime (for
those of us with no window, for example).

For example:
	server="afs-10"
	part="a"
	foreach vol ( `vos listvol -fast $server $part | tail +2` )
		bos salvage $server $part $vol
	end
Say doing one partion early each morning or something.
