Hi, I am fiddling around with a problem I have. The data in question is not vital, but I'd like to understand what's going on before it *is* vital. I have a volume that is write-only but connected, after the client was disconnected and I *know* which files are in conflict. Volume state is: sneumann_at_Enceladus:/coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste > cfs lv . Status of volume 0xffffffff (4294967295) named "A_Local_Fake_Volume" Offline message is "This directory is made a fake volume because there is a conflict" Volume type is ReadOnly Connection State is Connected The console shows me there is a conflict: 19:28:55 Local inconsistent object at /coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste, please check! Question: how to check ? The other tools deny the problem: sneumann_at_Enceladus:/coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste > cfs beginrepair . . isn't inconsistent repair > beginrepair . Could not allocate new repvol: Not leftmost conflict: Object not in conflict beginrepair failed. I have a token, server is up. The modified files show a sneumann_at_Enceladus:/coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste > ls ls: Europa: Connection timed out ls: Mimas: Connection timed out ls: aipc1: Connection timed out Enceladus I can't even flush the files: sneumann_at_Enceladus:/coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste > cfs flushobject /coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste/* DANGER: these files will be lost, if disconnected Do you really want to do this? [n] y Fools rush in where angels fear to tread ........ /coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste/Enceladus Can't flush active file /coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste/Europa VIOCFLUSH: Connection timed out /coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste/Mimas VIOCFLUSH: Connection timed out /coda/vol/ai/share/laptop_liste/aipc1 VIOCFLUSH: Connection timed out File Enceladus has been created locally offline. The other three changed on the server in the meantime. All systems are running 5.3.12 on linux 2.2.16 Any clues, short of venus -init ? Yours, SteffenReceived on 2001-02-05 13:41:18
