Has anyone else had problems with volutil restore after upgrading to coda-5.3.6? Whenever I try it, whether I specify the volid and name or not, the server codasrv dies. Here is the SrvErr file: could not open key 2 file: No such file or directory Date: Mon 04/03/2000 10:57:17 f_icreate: bitmap free at 0, inode 1 exists! Assertion failed: 0, file "ftreeifs.c", line 319 VENUS IS EXITING! Bye! Also, how do you rename a restored volume to its original name? or can you rename a volume? There is a note in the man page for volutil that there is a command 'volutil ancient'; does this make the restored volume the real volume? The manual in the chapter 'Reinitializing Coda Servers after a Disaster' is as obscure as can be; it says: Next create a directory /coda/tmp/restore and use the volutil restore to restore each of the backup clones to /coda/tmp/restore. But I don't understand what the directory is for. The restored volumes also seem to get mounted in /coda/tmp/inited, since it says later: Create a directory /coda/tmp/inited and mount all of the volumes created in XXX in this directory. and again later: Use cfs rmmount to umount all of the volumes in /coda/tmp/restored and /coda/tmp/inited. Does 'volutil restore' create a mount point? Is it failing for me because I am outside /coda when I run it? The manual also refers to a script restorevolumes(8), which no longer seems to exist. -- Owen LeBlanc_at_mcc.ac.ukReceived on 2000-04-03 06:33:44
