Access the AFS distribution by changing directory as indicated.
Substitute "i386_linux22" for the
sysname variable.
If you copied the contents of the
root.client directory into AFS (in Step 6 of
Storing Binaries in AFS), change directory as indicated.
# cd /afs/cellname/sysname/usr/afsws/root.client |
If copying files from the CD-ROM, mount the CD-ROM for this
machine's system type on the local /cdrom directory. For
instructions on mounting CD-ROMs (either locally or remotely via NFS),
consult the operating system documentation. Then change directory as
indicated.
# cd /cdrom/sysname/root.client |
If accessing the distribution electronically, you possibly
already downloaded it in Storing Binaries in AFS. If
so, it is still in the temp_afs36_dir
directory. If not, download it and run any commands necessary to
uncompress or unpack the distribution. Place it in a temporary location
(temp_afs36_dir), and change directory
to the indicated subdirectory.
# cd temp_afs36_dir/root.client |
Copy the AFS kernel library files to the local
/usr/vice/etc/modload directory. The filenames for the
libraries have the format
libafs-version.o, where version
indicates the kernel build level. The string .mp in
the version indicates that the file is appropriate for
use with symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) kernels.
# cd usr/vice/etc
# cp -rp modload /usr/vice/etc |
The AFS 3.6 distribution includes a new AFS initialization file
that can select automatically from the kernel extensions included in AFS
3.6. Copy it to the /etc/rc.d/init.d
directory, removing the .rc extension as you do.
# cp -p afs.rc /etc/rc.d/init.d/afs |
The afsd options file possibly already exists as
/etc/sysconfig/afs from running a previous version of AFS
on this machine. Compare it to the version in the
root.client/usr/vice/etc directory of the AFS 3.6
distribution to see if any changes are needed.
If the options file is not already in place, copy it now. Note the
removal of the .conf extension as you copy.
# cp -p afs.conf /etc/sysconfig/afs |
If necessary, edit the options file to invoke the desired arguments on the
afsd command in the initialization script. For further
information, see the section titled Configuring the Cache
Manager in the OpenAFS Quick Beginnings
chapter about configuring client machines.Issue the chkconfig command to activate the
afs configuration variable, if it is not already.
Based on the instruction in the AFS initialization file that begins with
the string "#chkconfig", the command automatically creates the
symbolic links that incorporate the script into the Linux startup and shutdown
sequence.
# /sbin/chkconfig --add afs |
(Optional) If the machine is
configured as a client, there are now copies of the AFS initialization file
in both the /usr/vice/etc
and /etc/init.d directories, and copies of the
afsd options file in both the
/usr/vice/etc and /etc/sysconfig
directories. If you want to avoid potential confusion by guaranteeing that
the two copies of each file are always the same, create a link between them.
You can always retrieve the original script or options file from the AFS
distribution if necessary.
# cd /usr/vice/etc
# rm afs.rc afs.conf
# ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/afs afs.rc
# ln -s /etc/sysconfig/afs afs.conf |
Reboot the machine.
If you are upgrading a server machine, login again as the local
superuser root, then return to Step 6 in Upgrading Server
Machines.
