<para>The <emphasis role="bold">package</emphasis> program uses system-independent <emphasis>prototype files</emphasis> to

define a standard disk configuration; a prototype file indicates which files reside on the local client disk, which files are

<para>The <emphasis role="bold">package</emphasis> program compares the contents of a local client disk with the configuration

local disk by copying the files from AFS onto the disk. The <emphasis role="bold">package</emphasis> program can also be

(such as the <emphasis role="bold">dkload</emphasis> file) have been updated.</para>

<title>Using Package on File Server Machines</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>While the <emphasis role="bold">package</emphasis> program was designed for use on client machines, it can also be used
|
|
to configure a file server machine's disk. However, if any of the files referred to in a configuration file reside in volumes
|
|
on the file server, the <emphasis role="bold">package</emphasis> program cannot access the volumes during reboot (and until
|
|
the File Server process and Volume Server process start up again).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Since the <emphasis role="bold">package</emphasis> program aborts when it cannot access a file, you need to eliminate
|
|
references to files in AFS that reside in volumes on the file server machine. Because of these constraints, the remainder of
|
|
this chapter assumes the <emphasis role="bold">package</emphasis> program is being used for client configurations.</para>

<para>Begin by listing the different functions or roles client machines perform and the local disk configurations that support
|
|
those functions. Example roles include a standard client that provides AFS access, a print server that drives a printer, and a

|
backup machine on which you issue commands from the <emphasis role="bold">backup</emphasis> suite. Create a different

<emphasis>prototype file</emphasis> for each role.</para>
|
|
|

<para>A prototype file defines the disk configuration that supports a specific role. Usually, prototype files are

|
function-specific, but system independent; system-specific values can be defined using variables and library files. Then, when

you modify a variable or library file, the change gets propagated to all appropriate clients when the <emphasis

<para>A prototype file is a template that defines the configuration of a client's local disk. Prototype files are usually
|

function-specific (for example, a backup machine, print server, etc.) but system-independent. Prototype files support the use of

<computeroutput>ifdef</computeroutput> statements and variables, so you can include system-specific definitions. The actual

system-specific configuration file is generated when the prototype file is compiled.</para>

<para>The components defined in a prototype file can include the directories, files, symbolic links, block special devices,

client function.</para>

<title>Local Files versus Symbolic Links</title>

<para>You can take advantage of the AFS by keeping the number of files on the local client disk to a minimum; instead, create
|
|
symbolic links that point into AFS. This can improve machine performance by allowing more space for caching and
|
|
swapping.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Some files, however, must reside on the local disk, as described below. Create these files in the prototype or library
|
|
files using the <emphasis role="bold">F</emphasis> (file) instruction, not the <emphasis role="bold">L</emphasis> (symbolic
|
|
link) instruction.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The following types of files must reside on the local disk of all AFS clients: <itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>Boot sequence files executed before the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> program runs.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Until <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> runs and initializes the Cache Manager, AFS is inaccessible from the
|
|
client. Any files that are executed before the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> program runs must reside on the
|
|
local client disk.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For example, on a machine that uses a disk cache, the <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/cache</emphasis> directory
|
|
must exist when you bring up the Cache Manager, so that there is a location to create cache files. The binary files
|
|
<emphasis role="bold">/etc/mount</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">/etc/umount</emphasis> must be available on the
|
|
local disk as the machine boots in order to mount the <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/cache</emphasis> directory.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In addition, certain UNIX files, such as initialization files (<emphasis role="bold">/etc/rc</emphasis> or
|
|
equivalent) and file system mapping files (<emphasis role="bold">/etc/fstab</emphasis> or equivalent), must reside on
|
|
the local disk.</para>

<listitem>
|
|
<para>Diagnostic and recovery files</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Certain commands can be used to diagnose and recover from problems caused by a file server outage. It is best to
|
|
keep copies of the binaries for these commands on the local disk. For example, store the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">bos</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">fs</emphasis> binaries in the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">/usr/vice/etc</emphasis> directory on the local disk, as well as in the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">/usr/afsws</emphasis> directory (which in the conventional configuration is a symbolic link into AFS). Then,
|
|
set PATH variables so that the <emphasis role="bold">/usr/afsws</emphasis> directory appears before the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">/usr/vice/etc</emphasis> directory. Thus, even if users cannot access AFS (for example, due to a file server
|
|
outage) they can still access copies of the <emphasis role="bold">bos</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">fs</emphasis>
|
|
binaries in the <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/etc</emphasis> directory on the local disk.</para>

prompt. They display a list of potential problems without actually executing instructions.</para>
