Current Status of OpenAFS Servers on Campus

At this time using an OpenAFS server is not supported. Production OpenAFS servers will not be allowed on the network until more testing has been done. Fortunately, some testing is in progress. Also, at this point in time, we do not have the client software to integrate Linux OpenAFS servers into the Veritas backup system used by ITD. However, the backup tool provided by AFS is available as well as other backup options.
