string | --rxkad-level=string] [-s string | --sysname=string]

DESCRIPTIONafsd runs on AFS client machines. It is used to manage the file cache,
fetch files from AFS servers, handle callbacks and manage the
authentication information for users.
In normal cases afsd will be started by enabling it in /etc/rc.conf.
The options are as follows:
-c string, --conffile=string
Path to configuration file.
-l string, --log=string
Where to write log [stderr|syslog|path] (default: stderr).
--debug=string
What to write in the log (default: none).
-d string, --device=string
The XFS device to use (default: /dev/nnpfs0).
--connected-mode=string
Initial connected mode [conncted|fetch-only|disconnected].
-n, --no-fork
Don't fork and daemonize.
-r string, --rxkad-level=string
The rxkad level to use [clear|auth|crypt] (default: crypt).
-s string, --sysname=string
Set the sysname of this system.
--root-volume=string
Name of the root volume.
--port=number
Port number to use.
-z, --recover
Don't recover state.
--cache-dir=string
Cache directory (default: /var/spool/afs).
-D, --dynroot
Use dynamic root.
--cpu-usage
System and userland cpu-usage times is appended at the end line
that is logged.
--version
Print version information.
--help Print usage information.
It is highly recommended that the cache filesystem size is increased to
at least few hundred megabytes, and that it is made as a separate
filesystem. The cache size is configured in afsd.conf(5). If enough
memory is available the cache filesystem could be a mfs(8) to improve
performance.
FILES
/etc/afs/afsd.conf default configuration for afsd
/etc/afs/CellServDB database with all known AFS servers
/etc/afs/ThisCell default cell (where we get the root directory)
/var/spool/afs default cache directory

vos(8)BUGS
If afsd happens to crash, it's recommended to restart it with the -z
flag. Otherwise a corrupted cache can be reused.
