AFSD.CONF(5) OpenBSD Programmer's Manual AFSD.CONF(5)NAME
afsd.conf - configuration file for the arla AFS implementation.
SYNOPSIS
The default configuration file works very well in most cases.
DESCRIPTION
Most flags can be overridden by command line arguments to afsd.
Each option can be of the type integer, string or boolean.
Integer values can be written with suffix `K' (kilo, 1000), `M' (mega,
10000000) and `G' (giga, 10000000000) .
Strings are written without quotes or spaces in the strings.
Boolean values can be either of yes, true, no, or false.
Supported options:
dynroot
Boolean value. Dynamic root, generates your /afs directory from
CellServDB or DynRootDB. Useful when you don't want to use your
cell's root.afs.
fake_stat
Boolean value. If set, do not fetch real stat information where
it can be expensive (i e across mountpoints), but make up some
reasonable values.
fetch_block
Integer value. Determines the fetch/pre-fetch block size. This
option will later be replaced by code to automagically tune this
setting.
low_vnodes
Integer value. The number of used vnodes we try to keep in the
cache. Any higher number of used nodes will trigger the cleaner
thread.
high_bytes
Integer value. The high watermark for files used by arlad.
low_bytes
Integer value. The number of bytes we try to keep in the cache.
Any higher number of bytes will trigger the cleaner thread.
numcreds
Integer value. The maximum number of credentials kept in arla,
both authenticated (like Kerberos V4 creds), and not.
numconns
Integer value. The maximum total number of connections arla will
keep to servers (fileserver and vldb-server).
numvols
Integer value. The number of volumes stored in cache.
sysname
String value. The sysname is possible to specify in the
configuration file. It's overridden by the command line argument
--sysname=sysname to arlad.
rxkad-level
It can be one of: clear, auth, or crypt. It's the same as the
command line argument.
high_vnodes
Integer value. The upper limit of arlad's vnodes (think files
and directories).
BUGS
The parser that reads numbers doesn't support numbers larger than 2G for
most platforms when used on the abbreviated form (3G, 3000M, etc). Write
out the whole number (3000000000) and make sure you have a working
strtoll().
