217 When you later install additional file server
218 machines in your cell, you can distribute these volumes among the different machines as you see fit.</para>

223
224 <para>Installation of additional machines is simplest if the first machine has the lowest IP address of any database server
225 machine you currently plan to install. If you later install database server functionality on a machine with a lower IP address,
226 you must first update the <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB</emphasis> file on all of your cell's client machines.

370
371 <para>Every AFS file server machine should have at least one partition or logical volume dedicated to storing AFS volumes
372 (for convenience, the documentation hereafter refers to partitions only). Each server partition is mounted at a directory
373 named <emphasis role="bold">/vicep</emphasis><replaceable>xx</replaceable>, where <replaceable>xx</replaceable> is one or
374 two lowercase letters. By convention, the first 26 partitions are mounted on the directories called <emphasis
375 role="bold">/vicepa</emphasis> through <emphasis role="bold">/vicepz</emphasis>, the 27th one is mounted on the <emphasis
376 role="bold">/vicepaa</emphasis> directory, and so on through <emphasis role="bold">/vicepaz</emphasis> and <emphasis
377 role="bold">/vicepba</emphasis>, continuing up to the index corresponding to the maximum number of server partitions
378 supported in the current version of AFS (which is specified in the <emphasis>OpenAFS Release Notes</emphasis>).</para>
379
380 <para>The <emphasis role="bold">/vicep</emphasis><replaceable>xx</replaceable> directories must reside in the file server
381 machine's root directory, not in one of its subdirectories (for example, <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vicepa</emphasis> is
382 not an acceptable directory location).
383
384 The <emphasis role="bold">fileserver</emphasis> will refuse to
385 mount
386 any <emphasis role="bold">/vicep</emphasis><replaceable>xx</replaceable>
387 folders that are not separate partitions without additional
388 configuration. </para>
389
390 <warning>
391 <para>The separate partition requirement may be overridden by
392 creating a file named
393 <emphasis role="bold">/vicep<replaceable>xx</replaceable>/AlwaysAttach</emphasis>;
394 however, mixed-use partitions, whether cache or fileserver,
395 have the risk that a non-AFS use will fill the partition and
396 not leave enough free space for AFS. Even though it is
397 allowed, be wary of configuring a mixed-use partition
398 without understanding the ramifications of doing so with the
399 workload on your filesystem.

782 </note>
783
784 <para>At this point you incorporate AFS into the operating system's
785 Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) scheme. PAM integrates all
786 authentication mechanisms on the machine, including login, to provide
787 the security infrastructure for authenticated access to and from the
788 machine.</para>
789
790 <para>You should first configure your system to obtain Kerberos v5
791 tickets as part of the authentication process, and then run an AFS PAM
792 module to obtain tokens from those tickets after authentication. Many
793 Linux distributions come with a Kerberos v5 PAM module (usually called
794 pam-krb5 or pam_krb5), or you can download and install <ulink
795 url="http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/pam-krb5">Russ Allbery's
796 Kerberos v5 PAM module</ulink>, which is tested regularly with AFS.
797 See the instructions of whatever PAM module you use for how to
798 configure it.</para>
799
800 <para>Some Kerberos v5 PAM modules do come with native AFS support
801 (usually requiring the Heimdal Kerberos implementation rather than the
802 MIT Kerberos implementation). If you are using one of those PAM
803 modules, you can configure it to obtain AFS tokens. It's more common,
804 however, to separate the AFS token acquisition into a separate PAM
805 module.</para>
806
807 <para>The recommended AFS PAM module is <ulink
808 url="http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/pam-afs-session/">Russ
809 Allbery's pam-afs-session module</ulink>. It should work with any of
810 the Kerberos v5 PAM modules. To add it to the PAM configuration, you
811 often only need to add configuration to the session group:</para>
812
813 <example>
814 <title>Linux PAM session example</title>
815 <literallayout>session required pam_afs_session.so</literallayout>
816 </example>
817
818 <para>If you also want to obtain AFS tokens for <command>scp</command>
819 and similar commands that don't open a session, you will also need to
820 add the AFS PAM module to the auth group so that the PAM
821 <function>setcred</function> call will obtain tokens. The
822 <literal>pam_afs_session</literal> module will always return success
823 for authentication so that it can be added to the auth group only for
824 <function>setcred</function>, so make sure that it's not marked as
825 <literal>sufficient</literal>.</para>
826
827 <example>
828 <title>Linux PAM auth example</title>
829 <literallayout>auth [success=ok default=1] pam_krb5.so
830 auth [default=done] pam_afs_session.so
831 auth required pam_unix.so try_first_pass</literallayout>
832 </example>
833
834 <para>This example will work if you want to try Kerberos v5 first and
835 then fall back to regular Unix authentication.
836 <literal>success=ok</literal> for the Kerberos PAM module followed by
837 <literal>default=done</literal> for the AFS PAM module will cause a
838 successful Kerberos login to run the AFS PAM module and then skip the
839 Unix authentication module. <literal>default=1</literal> on the
840 Kerberos PAM module causes failure of that module to skip the next
841 module (the AFS PAM module) and fall back to the Unix module. If you
842 want to try Unix authentication first and rearrange the order, be sure
843 to use <literal>default=die</literal> instead.</para>
844
845 <para>The PAM configuration is stored in different places in different
846 Linux distributions. On Red Hat, look in
847 <filename>/etc/pam.d/system-auth</filename>. On Debian and

849 and <filename>/etc/pam.d/common-auth</filename>.</para>

1271
1272 <para>At this point you incorporate AFS into the operating system's
1273 Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) scheme. PAM integrates all
1274 authentication mechanisms on the machine, including login, to provide
1275 the security infrastructure for authenticated access to and from the
1276 machine.</para>
1277
1278 <para>Explaining PAM is beyond the scope of this document. It is
1279 assumed that you understand the syntax and meanings of settings in the
1280 PAM configuration file (for example, how the
1281 <computeroutput>other</computeroutput> entry works, the effect of
1282 marking an entry as <computeroutput>required</computeroutput>,
1283 <computeroutput>optional</computeroutput>, or
1284 <computeroutput>sufficient</computeroutput>, and so on).</para>
1285
1286 <para>You should first configure your system to obtain Kerberos v5
1287 tickets as part of the authentication process, and then run an AFS PAM
1288 module to obtain tokens from those tickets after authentication.
1289 Current versions of Solaris come with a Kerberos v5 PAM module that
1290 will work, or you can download and install <ulink
1291 url="http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/pam-krb5">Russ Allbery's
1292 Kerberos v5 PAM module</ulink>, which is tested regularly with AFS.
1293 See the instructions of whatever PAM module you use for how to
1294 configure it.</para>
1295
1296 <para>Some Kerberos v5 PAM modules do come with native AFS support
1297 (usually requiring the Heimdal Kerberos implementation rather than the
1298 MIT Kerberos implementation). If you are using one of those PAM
1299 modules, you can configure it to obtain AFS tokens. It's more common,
1300 however, to separate the AFS token acquisition into a separate PAM
1301 module.</para>
1302
1303 <para>The recommended AFS PAM module is <ulink
1304 url="http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/pam-afs-session/">Russ
1305 Allbery's pam-afs-session module</ulink>. It should work with any of
1306 the Kerberos v5 PAM modules. To add it to the PAM configuration, you
1307 often only need to add configuration to the session group in
1308 <filename>pam.conf</filename>:</para>
1309
1310 <example>
1311 <title>Solaris PAM session example</title>
1312 <literallayout>login session required pam_afs_session.so</literallayout>
1313 </example>
1314
1315 <para>This example enables PAM authentication only for console login.
1316 You may want to add a similar line for the ssh service and for any
1317 other login service that you use, including possibly the
1318 <literal>other</literal> service (which serves as a catch-all). You
1319 may also want to add options to the AFS PAM session module
1320 (particularly <literal>retain_after_close</literal>, which is
1321 necessary for some versions of Solaris.</para>
1322
1323 <para>For additional configuration examples and the configuration
1324 options of the AFS PAM module, see its documentation. For more
1325 details on the available options for the PAM configuration, see the
1326 <filename>pam.conf</filename> manual page.</para>

1451 <para>You are now ready to start the AFS server processes on this machine.
1452 If you are not working from a packaged distribution, begin by installing the
1453 AFS server binaries to the conventional local disk
1454 location, the <emphasis role="bold">/usr/afs/bin</emphasis> directory. The
1455 following instructions also create files in other subdirectories of the
1456 <emphasis role="bold">/usr/afs</emphasis> directory.</para>
1457
1458 <para>Then obtain a krb5 keytab for use by the servers in the cell.
1459 Once the keytab is in place, issue the
1460 <emphasis role="bold">bosserver</emphasis> command to initialize
1461 the Basic OverSeer (BOS) Server, which
1462 monitors and controls other AFS server processes on its server machine.
1463 Because you have not yet configured your cell's AFS authentication and authorization
1464 mechanisms, you must always use the
1465 <emphasis role="bold">-localauth</emphasis> flag to commands, to use a
1466 printed token that does not correspond to a normal krb5 identity.</para>
1467 <para>Older versions of these instructions used the
1468 <emphasis role="bold">-noauth</emphasis> flag, which completely disables
1469 all authentication and authorization checking, allowing anyone at all
1470 to control the system. Do not use this flag! It is highly insecure,
1471 and is no longer needed.</para>
1472
1473 <para>As it initializes for the first time, the BOS Server creates the following directories and files, setting the owner to the

2982 <para>The <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB</emphasis> file on a client machine's local disk lists the database
2983 server machines for each cell that the local Cache Manager can contact. If there is no entry in the file for a cell, or if the

3004 <para>The <emphasis role="bold">CellServDB.dist</emphasis> file can be a

3109
3110 <para>The Cache Manager uses a cache on the local disk or in machine memory to store local copies of files fetched from file
3111 server machines. As the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> program initializes the Cache Manager, it sets basic cache
3112 configuration parameters according to definitions in the local <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/etc/cacheinfo</emphasis> file.
3113 The file has three fields: <orderedlist>
3114 <listitem>
3115 <para>The first field names the local directory on which to mount the AFS filespace. The conventional location is the
3116 <emphasis role="bold">/afs</emphasis> directory.</para>
3117 </listitem>
3118
3119 <listitem>
3120 <para>The second field defines the local disk directory to use for the disk cache. The conventional location is the
3121 <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/cache</emphasis> directory, but you can specify an alternate directory if another
3122 partition has more space available. There must always be a value in this field, but the Cache Manager ignores it if the
3123 machine uses a memory cache.</para>
3124 </listitem>
3125
3126 <listitem>
3127 <para>The third field specifies the number of kilobyte (1024 byte) blocks to allocate for the cache.</para>
3128 </listitem>
3129 </orderedlist></para>
3130
3131 <para>The values you define must meet the following requirements. <itemizedlist>
3132 <listitem>
3133 <para>On a machine using a disk cache, the Cache Manager expects always to be able to use the amount of space specified in
3134 the third field. Failure to meet this requirement can cause serious problems, some of which can be repaired only by
3135 rebooting. You must prevent non-AFS processes from filling up the cache partition. The simplest way is to devote a
3136 partition to the cache exclusively.</para>
3137 </listitem>
3138
3139 <listitem>
3140 <para>The amount of space available in memory or on the partition housing the disk cache directory imposes an absolute
3141 limit on cache size.</para>
3142 </listitem>
3143
3144 <listitem>
3145 <para>The maximum supported cache size can vary in each AFS release; see the <emphasis>OpenAFS Release Notes</emphasis>
3146 for the current version.</para>
3147 </listitem>
3148
3149 <listitem>
3150 <para>For a disk cache, you cannot specify a value in the third field that exceeds 95% of the space available on the
3151 partition mounted at the directory named in the second field. If you violate this restriction, the <emphasis
3152 role="bold">afsd</emphasis> program exits without starting the Cache Manager and prints an appropriate message on the
3153 standard output stream. A value of 90% is more appropriate on most machines. Some operating systems do not
3154 automatically reserve some space to prevent the partition from filling completely; for them, a smaller value (say, 80% to
3155 85% of the space available) is more appropriate.</para>
3156 </listitem>
3157
3158 <listitem>
3159 <para>For a memory cache, you must leave enough memory for other processes and applications to run. If you try to allocate
3160 more memory than is actually available, the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> program exits without initializing the
3161 Cache Manager and produces the following message on the standard output stream. <programlisting>
3162 afsd: memCache allocation failure at <replaceable>number</replaceable> KB
3163 </programlisting></para>
3164
3165 <para>The <replaceable>number</replaceable> value is how many kilobytes were allocated just before the failure, and so
3166 indicates the approximate amount of memory available.</para>
3167 </listitem>
3168 </itemizedlist></para>
3169
3170 <para>Within these hard limits, the factors that determine appropriate cache size include the number of users working on the
3171 machine, the size of the files with which they work, and (for a memory cache) the number of processes that run on the machine.
3172 The higher the demand from these factors, the larger the cache needs to be to maintain good performance.</para>
3173
3174 <para>Disk caches smaller than 10 MB do not generally perform well. Machines serving multiple users usually perform better with
3175 a cache of at least 60 to 70 MB. The point at which enlarging the cache further does not really improve performance depends on
3176 the factors mentioned previously and is difficult to predict.</para>
3177
3178 <para>Memory caches smaller than 1 MB are nonfunctional, and the performance of caches smaller than 5 MB is usually
3179 unsatisfactory. Suitable upper limits are similar to those for disk caches but are probably determined more by the demands on
3180 memory from other sources on the machine (number of users and processes). Machines running only a few processes possibly can use
3181 a smaller memory cache.</para>

3280 <title>Configuring the Cache Manager</title>
3281
3282 <para>By convention, the Cache Manager mounts the AFS filespace on the local <emphasis role="bold">/afs</emphasis> directory. In
3283 this section you create that directory.</para>
3284
3285 <para>The <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> program sets several cache configuration parameters as it initializes the Cache
3286 Manager, and starts daemons that improve performance. You can use the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> command's arguments
3287 to override the parameters' default values and to change the number of some of the daemons. Depending on the machine's cache
3288 size, its amount of RAM, and how many people work on it, you can sometimes improve Cache Manager performance by overriding the
3289 default values. For a discussion of all of the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> command's arguments, see its reference page
3290 in the <emphasis>OpenAFS Administration Reference</emphasis>.</para>
3291
3292 <para>On platforms using the standard 'afs' initialisation script (this does not apply to Fedora or RHEL based distributions), the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> command line in the AFS initialization script on each system type includes an
3293 <computeroutput>OPTIONS</computeroutput> variable. You can use it to set nondefault values for the command's arguments, in one
3294 of the following ways: <itemizedlist>
3295 <listitem>
3296 <para>You can create an <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> <emphasis>options file</emphasis> that sets values for
3297 arguments to the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> command. If the file exists, its contents are automatically
3298 substituted for the <computeroutput>OPTIONS</computeroutput> variable in the AFS initialization script. The AFS
3299 distribution for some system types includes an options file; on other system types, you must create it.</para>
3300
3301 <para>You use two variables in the AFS initialization script to specify the path to the options file:
3302 <computeroutput>CONFIG</computeroutput> and <computeroutput>AFSDOPT</computeroutput>. On system types that define a
3303 conventional directory for configuration files, the <computeroutput>CONFIG</computeroutput> variable indicates it by
3304 default; otherwise, the variable indicates an appropriate location.</para>
3305
3306 <para>List the desired <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> options on a single line in the options file, separating each
3307 option with one or more spaces. The following example sets the <emphasis role="bold">-stat</emphasis> argument to 2500,
3308 the <emphasis role="bold">-daemons</emphasis> argument to 4, and the <emphasis role="bold">-volumes</emphasis> argument to
3309 100.</para>

3318 initialization script to one of <computeroutput>$SMALL</computeroutput>, <computeroutput>$MEDIUM</computeroutput>, or
3319 <computeroutput>$LARGE</computeroutput>. The AFS initialization script uses one of these settings if the <emphasis
3320 role="bold">afsd</emphasis> options file named by the <computeroutput>AFSDOPT</computeroutput> variable does not exist. In
3321 the script as distributed, the <computeroutput>OPTIONS</computeroutput> variable is set to the value
3322 <computeroutput>$MEDIUM</computeroutput>.</para>

3863 Initialization Script</link>. You now set the access control list (ACL) on the <emphasis role="bold">/afs</emphasis> directory;
3864 creating, mounting, and setting the ACL are the three steps required when creating any volume.</para>
3865
3866 <para>After setting the ACL on the <emphasis role="bold">root.afs</emphasis> volume, you create your cell's <emphasis
3867 role="bold">root.cell</emphasis> volume, mount it as a subdirectory of the <emphasis role="bold">/afs</emphasis> directory, and
3868 set the ACL. Create both a read/write and a regular mount point for the <emphasis role="bold">root.cell</emphasis> volume. The
3869 read/write mount point enables you to access the read/write version of replicated volumes when necessary. Creating both mount
3870 points essentially creates separate read-only and read-write copies of your filespace, and enables the Cache Manager to traverse
3871 the filespace on a read-only path or read/write path as appropriate. For further discussion of these concepts, see the chapter

3885 This is required if you want to replicate any other volumes in your cell, because all volumes mounted above a replicated volume
3886 must themselves be replicated in order for the Cache Manager to access the replica.</para>
3887
3888 <para>When the <emphasis role="bold">root.afs</emphasis> volume is replicated, the Cache Manager is programmed to access its
3889 read-only version (<emphasis role="bold">root.afs.readonly</emphasis>) whenever possible. To make changes to the contents of the
3890 <emphasis role="bold">root.afs</emphasis> volume (when, for example, you mount another cell's <emphasis
3891 role="bold">root.cell</emphasis> volume at the second level in your filespace), you must mount the <emphasis
3892 role="bold">root.afs</emphasis> volume temporarily, make the changes, release the volume and remove the temporary mount point.

4604 <title>Storing System Binaries in AFS</title>
4605
4606 <para>You can also choose to store other system binaries in AFS volumes, such as the standard UNIX programs conventionally
4607 located in local disk directories such as <emphasis role="bold">/etc</emphasis>, <emphasis role="bold">/bin</emphasis>, and
4608 <emphasis role="bold">/lib</emphasis>. Storing such binaries in an AFS volume not only frees local disk space, but makes it
4609 easier to update binaries on all client machines.</para>
4610
4611 <para>The following is a suggested scheme for storing system binaries in AFS. It does not include instructions, but you can use
4612 the instructions in <link linkend="HDRWQ83">Storing AFS Binaries in AFS</link> (which are for AFS-specific binaries) as a
4613 template.</para>
4614
4615 <para>Some files must remain on the local disk for use when AFS is inaccessible (during bootup and file server or network
4616 outages). The required binaries include the following: <itemizedlist>
4617 <listitem>
4618 <para>A text editor, network commands, and so on</para>
4619 </listitem>
4620
4621 <listitem>
4622 <para>Files used during the boot sequence before the <emphasis role="bold">afsd</emphasis> program runs, such as
4623 initialization and configuration files, and binaries for commands that mount file systems</para>

4625
4626 <listitem>
4627 <para>Files used by dynamic kernel loader programs</para>
4628 </listitem>
4629 </itemizedlist></para>
4630
4631 <para>In most cases, it is more secure to enable only locally authenticated users to access system binaries, by granting the
4632 <emphasis role="bold">l</emphasis> (<emphasis role="bold">lookup</emphasis>) and <emphasis role="bold">r</emphasis> (<emphasis
4633 role="bold">read</emphasis>) permissions to the <emphasis role="bold">system:authuser</emphasis> group on the ACLs of
4634 directories that contain the binaries. If users need to access a binary while unauthenticated, however, the ACL on its directory
4635 must grant those permissions to the <emphasis role="bold">system:anyuser</emphasis> group.</para>
4636
4637 <para>The following chart summarizes the suggested volume and mount point names for storing system binaries. It uses a separate
4638 volume for each directory. You already created a volume called <replaceable>sysname</replaceable> for this machine's system type
4639 when you followed the instructions in <link linkend="HDRWQ83">Storing AFS Binaries in AFS</link>.</para>
4640
4641 <para>You can name volumes in any way you wish, and mount them at other locations than those suggested here. However, this
4642 scheme has several advantages: <itemizedlist>
4643 <listitem>
4644 <para>Volume names clearly identify volume contents</para>
4645 </listitem>
4646
4647 <listitem>
4648 <para>Using the <replaceable>sysname</replaceable> prefix on every volume makes it is easy to back up all of the volumes
4649 together, because the AFS Backup System enables you to define sets of volumes based on a string included in all of their
4650 names</para>

4821 <title>Enabling Access to Foreign Cells</title>
4822
4823 <para>With current OpenAFS releases, there exist a number of mechanisms for
4824 providing access to foreign cells. You may add mount points in your AFS
4825 filespace for each foreign cell you wish users to access, or you can
4826 enable a 'synthetic' AFS root, which contains mountpoints for either all
4827 AFS cells defined in the client machine's local
4828 <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB</emphasis>, or for all cells
4829 providing location information in the DNS.
4830 </para>
4831
4832 <sect2>
4833 <title>Enabling a Synthetic AFS root</title>
4834
4835 <para>When a synthetic root is enabled, the client cache machine creates its
4836 own root.afs volume, rather than using the one provided with your cell. This
4837 allows clients to access all cells in the
4838 <emphasis role="bold">CellServDB</emphasis> file and, optionally, all cells
4839 registered in the DNS, without requiring system administrator action to
4840 enable this access. Using a synthetic root has the additional advantage that
4841 it allows a client to start its AFS service without a network available, as
4842 it is no longer necessary to contact a fileserver to obtain the root volume.
4843 </para>
4844
4845 <para>OpenAFS supports two complimentary mechanisms for creating the
4846 synthetic root. Starting the cache manager with the
4847 <emphasis role="bold">-dynroot</emphasis> option adds all cells listed
4848 in <emphasis role="bold">/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB</emphasis> to the client's
4849 AFS root. Adding the <emphasis role="bold">-afsdb</emphasis> option in
4850 addition to this enables DNS lookups for any cells that are not found in
4851 the client's CellServDB file. Both of these options are added to the AFS
4852 initialisation script, or options file, as detailed in
4853 <link linkend="HDRWQ70">Configuring the Cache Manager</link>.</para>
4854 </sect2>
4855 <sect2>
4856 <title>Adding foreign cells to a conventional root volume</title>
4857
4858 <para>In this section you create a mount point in your AFS filespace for the <emphasis role="bold">root.cell</emphasis> volume
4859 of each foreign cell that you want to enable your users to access. For users working on a client machine to access the cell,
4860 there must in addition be an entry for it in the client machine's local <emphasis
4861 role="bold">/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB</emphasis> file. (The instructions in <link linkend="HDRWQ66">Creating the Client
4862 CellServDB File</link> suggest that you use the <emphasis role="bold">CellServDB.sample</emphasis> file included in the AFS
4863 distribution as the basis for your cell's client <emphasis role="bold">CellServDB</emphasis> file. The sample file lists all of
4864 the cells that had agreed to participate in the AFS global namespace at the time your AFS CD-ROM was created. As mentioned in
4865 that section, the AFS Product Support group also maintains a copy of the file, updating it as necessary.)</para>
4866
4867 <para>The chapter in the <emphasis>OpenAFS Administration Guide</emphasis> about cell administration and configuration issues
4868 discusses the implications of participating in the global AFS namespace. The chapter about administering client machines
4869 explains how to maintain knowledge of foreign cells on client machines, and includes suggestions for maintaining a central
4870 version of the file in AFS. <orderedlist>
4871 <listitem>
4872 <para>Issue the <emphasis role="bold">fs mkmount</emphasis> command to mount each foreign cell's <emphasis
4873 role="bold">root.cell</emphasis> volume on a directory called <emphasis
4874 role="bold">/afs/</emphasis><replaceable>foreign_cell</replaceable>. Because the <emphasis role="bold">root.afs</emphasis>
4875 volume is replicated, you must create a temporary mount point for its read/write version in a directory to which you have
4876 write access (such as your cell's <emphasis role="bold">/afs/.</emphasis><replaceable>cellname</replaceable> directory).
4877 Create the mount points, issue the <emphasis role="bold">vos release</emphasis> command to release new replicas to the
4878 read-only sites for the <emphasis role="bold">root.afs</emphasis> volume, and issue the <emphasis role="bold">fs

5121 <para>As the BOS Server initializes for the first time on a server machine, it creates several files and directories (as
