I currently have just one AFS database server and was considering setting u=
p another machine to just be a clone for back up purposes.=0A=0A=0AI was lo=
oking at the documentation for bos addhost and it indicates under the -clon=
e option that this should be used with caution.=0A=0AAre there any issues I=
 need to watch out for to set this machine as a clone.=A0 Additionally, thi=
s machine has a lower IP Address and I don't want it to be considered a syn=
c site.=0A=0AI'm currently running openafs 1.6.0 on my client/servers and l=
inux kernel 2.6.38.8 on Slackware 13.37 machines (64 bit).=0A=0ABos addhost=
