Dear AFS users,
We had to migrate our openAFS server to a different infrastructure
because of hardware failures and thus adapt the IP address of the
virtual machine. Now, we have troubles starting openafs-server again.
It's only one server, no AFS network in place.
A useful error message is in /var/log/openafs/PtLog:
Sat Jan 20 16:47:37 2024 ubik: primary address 192.168.1.43 does not exist
Sat Jan 20 16:47:37 2024 ubik: No network addresses found,
aborting..ptserver: problems with host name Ubik init failed
and in /var/log/openafs/VLLog:
Sat Jan 20 16:47:37 2024 ubik: primary address 192.168.1.43 does not exist
Sat Jan 20 16:47:37 2024 ubik: No network addresses found,
aborting..vlserver: Ubik init failed: problems with host name
192.168.1.43 is the new internal IP address (10.20.30.12 was the
previous one).
We already replaced the IP address in /etc/openafs/CellServDB and
restarted the server.
I have found some older threads on the mailinglist about similar issues
which point to the content of /etc/hosts as a potential culprit, as well
as bogus "localhost" entries? I also tried to remove localhost from
/etc/hosts (which seems a bad idea), but that didn't resolve the error
either. What order of entries does openafs expect in /etc/hosts?
Currently we are at
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
192.168.1.43 afs1208 afs1208.example.com
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance
Sebastian
