man-page-conversion-20051208 This is the initial conversion of the AFS Adminstrators Reference into POD for use as man pages. The man pages are now generated via pod2man from regen.sh so that only those working from CVS have to have pod2man available. The Makefile only installs. The pages have also been sorted out into pod1, pod5, and pod8 directories, making conversion to the right section of man page easier without maintaining a separate list and allowing for names to be duplicated between pod5 and pod1 or pod8 (which will likely be needed in a few cases). This reconversion is done with a new script based on work by Chas Williams. In some cases, the output is worse than the previous POD pages, but this is a more comprehensive conversion. This is only the first step, and this initial conversion has various problems. In addition, the file man pages that didn't have simple names have not been converted in this pass and will be added later. Some of the man pages have syntax problems and all of them have formatting errors. The next editing pass, coming shortly, will clean up most of the remaining mess.

=head1 NAME
backup kill - Terminates a pending or running operation
=head1 SYNOPSIS
pretty-html-synopsis-20060228 Implement proper synopsis wrapping for HTML generation. This was done in three pieces. First, add HTML-specific tags to the POD to mark the synopsis for HTML purposes so that we can apply style information to it. Second, update the style sheet to indent all lines except for the first in the synopsis section. Third, add the appropriate S<> tags around option and argument pairs so that we don't wrap between the option and its argument. Unfortunately, due to the <I<foo>> style that looks nicer for other reasons, we have to use the very verbose S<<< >>>. Oh well.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
man8-editing-pass-20051213 This completes the initial editing pass of the section eight man pages. Only small amounts of content editing has been done. Some known problems have been noted in README, but there will doubtless be others, as well as some lingering formatting problems. However, the quality should now be good enough for general public review. Some of the section eight man pages were really supposed to be section one, the package apropros and package help commands are too useless to document, and a few of the difficult-to-name section five man pages have now acquired names.

The B<backup kill> command dequeues a Backup System operation that is
pending, or terminates an operation that is running, in the current
interactive session. It is available only in interactive mode. If the
issuer of the B<backup interactive> command included the B<-localauth>
flag, the B<-cell> argument, or both, then those settings apply to this
command also.

Please note that no editing for content has yet been done; this is solely editing for formatting and correct conversion to POD. Also, add some additional section five man pages that were omitted from the first conversion run due to unusual file names, and globally replace CAVEATS with CAUTIONS in the man pages to match the original section name. The section one man pages should now be in reasonable shape and ready for additional review and further updates, although there are probably still remaining obvious problems. ==================== This delta was composed from multiple commits as part of the CVS->Git migration.

It is best not to issue the B<backup kill> command against restore
operations. If the termination signal interrupts a restore operation as
the Backup System is overwriting an existing volume, it is possible to
lose the volume entirely (that is, to lose both the contents of the volume
as it was before the restore and any data that was restored before the
termination signal arrived). The data being restored still exists on the
tape, but some data can be lost permanently.

The man pages are now generated via pod2man from regen.sh so that only those working from CVS have to have pod2man available. The Makefile only installs. The pages have also been sorted out into pod1, pod5, and pod8 directories, making conversion to the right section of man page easier without maintaining a separate list and allowing for names to be duplicated between pod5 and pod1 or pod8 (which will likely be needed in a few cases). This reconversion is done with a new script based on work by Chas Williams. In some cases, the output is worse than the previous POD pages, but this is a more comprehensive conversion. This is only the first step, and this initial conversion has various problems. In addition, the file man pages that didn't have simple names have not been converted in this pass and will be added later. Some of the man pages have syntax problems and all of them have formatting errors. The next editing pass, coming shortly, will clean up most of the remaining mess.

man8-editing-pass-20051213 This completes the initial editing pass of the section eight man pages. Only small amounts of content editing has been done. Some known problems have been noted in README, but there will doubtless be others, as well as some lingering formatting problems. However, the quality should now be good enough for general public review. Some of the section eight man pages were really supposed to be section one, the package apropros and package help commands are too useless to document, and a few of the difficult-to-name section five man pages have now acquired names.
