[OpenAFS] cache manager timeout

[Andreas Ladanyi]

Hi,

is it possible to adjust the timeout of the cache manager when asking
the next CellServDB or afsdb entry when a server listed in CellServDB /
afsdb is offline so for example the users dont get a long waiting for
ssh login ?

regards,

Andreas

It's just using the system resolver (res_search()) via a userspace helper
thread, so you could adjust the timeout in /etc/resolv.conf, if I
understand correctly.
