Description

Anyone currently administrating AFS who wanted to “look under the hood/bonnet” as it were, will find this review of some the hurtles encountered getting started supporting AFS code helpful. Where is the code, how do you build from the source, simple debug techniques and how to develop/apply a test fix and eventually pushing it upstream will be covered. To drive AFS adoption going forward, the AFS ecosystem needs many more people familiar with the internals. Get started today! Perry is a recent addition to the SNA AFS team. He had many years experience supporting large, complex pieces of software, but no previous experience with open source projects, AFS, or Linux/Unix.
