CellAlias \- Maps cell names to aliases in /afs
193
The \fICellAlias\fR file is used when the AFS Cache Manager is Dynamic Root
194
(\fB\-dynroot\fR) mode. It creates symbolic links in the dynamic root that
195
link an alias for a cell (usually a short name) to the full name for the
198
The most common use of this configuration file is to allow short names for
199
frequently used cell names. Traditionally, such short names would be
200
created by the local AFS administrator by creating symbolic links in the
201
\f(CWroot.afs\fR volume. Such symlinks do not appear when Dynamic Root is
202
enabled because, with Dynamic Root, the Cache Manager does not mount or
203
look at the \f(CWroot.afs\fR volume. \fICellAlias\fR is a replacement that allows
204
such short names to be created under the client control.
206
If you configure a short name mapping such as \f(CWir\fR for
207
\f(CWir.stanford.edu\fR, the mapping of \f(CW.ir\fR to \f(CW.ir.stanford.edu\fR for the
208
read/write version of the \f(CWroot.cell\fR volume for that cell will be
209
created automatically. There is no need to list that alias separately (and
210
it is listed separately, \fBafsd\fR will report an error on startup).
212
The contents of the \fICellAlias\fR file should consist of one line of two
213
whitespace-separated columns per alias. The first column is the real name
214
of the cell, and the second column is the alias that should be created.
216
The following \fICellAlias\fR file:
219
\& openafs.org openafs
222
results in the following symbolic links:
225
\& /afs/.openafs -> /afs/.openafs.org
226
\& /afs/openafs -> /afs/openafs.org
227
\& /afs/.uncc -> /afs/.uncc.edu
228
\& /afs/uncc -> /afs/uncc.edu
