SALVAGE.fs - Triggers salvaging of AFS server partitions
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
The SALVAGE.fs file, if present in a file server
|
||
|
machine's B</usr/afs/local> directory, indicates to the Basic
|
||
|
OverSeer (BOS) Server (B<bosserver> process) that it must invoke the
|
||
|
Salvager (B<salvager> process) during recovery from a failure of the
|
||
|
File Server (B<fileserver> process).
|
||
|
|
||
|
The BOS Server creates the zero-length file each time it starts or restarts
|
||
|
the B<fs> process. When the File Server exits normally (for
|
||
|
example, in response to the B<bos shutdown> or B<bos stop>
|
||
|
command), the BOS Server removes the file. However, if the File Server
|
||
|
exits unexpectedly, the file remains in the B</usr/afs/local>
|
||
|
directory as a signal that the BOS Server must invoke the Salvager process to
|
||
|
repair any file system inconsistencies possibly introduced during the failure,
|
||
|
before restarting the File Server and Volume Server processes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Do not create or remove this file. To invoke the Salvager process
|
||
|
directly, use the B<bos salvage> command or log onto the file server
|
||
|
machine as the local superuser B<root> and issue the
|
||
|
B<salvager> command.
