Do not use the B<-shutdown> parameter. It does not shutdown the Cache
Manager effectively. Instead, halt Cache Manager activity by using the
standard UNIX B<umount> command to unmount the AFS root directory (by
convention, F</afs>). The machine must then be rebooted to reinitialize
the Cache Manager.
Before using the B<-shutdown> parameter, use the standard UNIX B<umount>
command to unmount the AFS root directory (by convention, F</afs>). On
Linux, unloading the AFS kernel module and then loading it again before
restarting AFS after B<-shutdown> is recommended.
AFS has for years had difficulties with being stopped and restarted
without an intervening reboot. While most of these issues have been
ironed out, stopping and restarting AFS is not recommended unless
necessary and rebooting before restarting AFS is still the safest course
of action.
