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.

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.
