After putting a few more hours into this, my brain is getting fuzzy... I can create more than one volume per storage area (/vicepa, ...). > The special case of the root volume of a realm can be seen then > as either an empty name or a "/" name. I prefer the second, > thus for consistency beginning all volume names with "/". Ah the "special case" is what got me. When I started from scratch, I was right back /coda with the symlink (wow the frustration!). Once I createvol_rep'd the "/" volume, Voila! I ls -lR /coda and see normal dirs, mkdir, etc. Now I've tried to purge so getvolumelist doesn't match VRList so I'm going to reinstall yet again. (I'll look into better vol management later... will be in production someday :-) jerryReceived on 2005-10-19 02:16:18
