KAFS-CHECK-CONFIG(1)

NAME
kafs-check-config - AFS configuration check tool

SYNOPSIS
kafs-check-config [OPTION]... [<cellname>]*

Where options are:

    [-46PDvv] [-c <conffile>]* [-N <restriction>]

DESCRIPTION
This program is used to check the configuration for the in-kernel AFS filesystem (kAFS). This configuration is used when systemd mounts the filesystem to load up the cell database and create cell automounts in the /afs directory.

The configuration is also used by the kernel name resolver upcall to provide static configuration for some cells and to specify overrides and limits on DNS lookups.

If a list of <cellname> arguments is given, the listed cells will be dumped, including the sources of the Volume Location records and address records.

The available options are:

ARGUMENTS

-4  Only show IPv4 addresses in the dump.

-6  Only show IPv6 addresses in the dump.

-P  Dump the parse tree of the configuration file(s).

-D  Dump the cell database extracted from the configuration.

-v  Increase the verbosity of the output. This may be specified multiple times.

-c <conffile>
    Specify a configuration file to read instead of the system default. This may be specified multiple times and the configuration files are read and applied in order.

-N <restriction>
    Apply a restriction to the lookup performed for the listed cells (if any are). Restrictions include:

    -N vl-srv
        Don't use SRV records to find Volume Location servers.

    -N vl-afsdb
        Don't use AFSDB records to find Volume Location servers.

    -N vl-all
        Don't use SRV or AFSDB records to find Volume Location servers.

    -N vl-host
        Don't look cell name up as hostname to find a Volume Location server.

    -N vl-dns
        Don't do any lookups to find Volume Location servers. Use only the static configuration.

EXIT STATUS

0   If check okay and any dumping succeeded.

1   If an error occurs during processing.

2   If a command line error occurs.
