Under normal operation this command should never need to be used, but it can be useful to reduce the amount of time a volume is offline after an accidental command, or a \fBvos\fR process crash. .PP Many \fBvos\fR commands, when they interact with a volume, create what is called a transaction in order to perform many different operations on a volume. If the \fBvos\fR process exits uncleanly, transactions may still stay open for the manipulated volumes, and the Volume Server may deny any further operations on those volumes while the transactions are still open. \fBvos endtrans\fR allows you to end these transactions and make the volumes usable again without needing to restart the volserver. .PP To find out what transactions are running on a Volume Server and what their transaction IDs are, see the \fBvos status\fR command. .SH CAUTIONS .IX Header "CAUTIONS" This command is not used during normal OpenAFS administration. If used improperly, this can negatively impact currently-running \&\fBvos\fR operations. Only run this on a transaction if you are certain that the program that created the transaction is no longer running. .SH OPTIONS .IX Header "OPTIONS" .IP "\fB\-server\fR <\fIserver name\fR>" 4 .IX Item "-server " Identifies the file server machine running the Volume Server on which to end the transaction. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see \fBvos\fR\|(1). .IP "\fB\-transaction\fR <\fItransaction ID\fR>" 4 .IX Item "-transaction " Identifies which transaction to end on the Volume Server. You can get a listing of active transactions and their IDs from the output of \&\fBvos status\fR. .IP "\fB\-cell\fR <\fIcell name\fR>" 4 .IX Item "-cell " Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the \fB\-localauth\fR flag. For more details, see \fBvos\fR\|(1). .IP \fB\-noauth\fR 4 .IX Item "-noauth" Assigns the unprivileged identity \f(CW\*(C`anonymous\*(C'\fR to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the \fB\-localauth\fR flag. For more details, see \&\fBvos\fR\|(1). .IP \fB\-localauth\fR 4 .IX Item "-localauth" Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local \&\fI/etc/openafs/server/KeyFile\fR file. The \fBvos\fR command interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the \fB\-cell\fR argument or \&\fB\-noauth\fR flag. For more details, see \fBvos\fR\|(1). .IP \fB\-verbose\fR 4 .IX Item "-verbose" Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and error messages appear. .IP \fB\-encrypt\fR 4 .IX Item "-encrypt" Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted across the network in clear text. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later. .IP \fB\-noresolve\fR 4 .IX Item "-noresolve" Shows all servers as IP addresses instead of the DNS name. This is very useful when the server address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing with multi-homed servers. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later. .IP "\fB\-config\fR <\fIconfiguration directory\fR>" 4 .IX Item "-config " Set the location of the configuration directory to be used. This defaults to \&\fI/etc/openafs\fR, except if \fB\-localauth\fR is specified, in which case the default is \fI/etc/openafs/server\fR. This option allows the use of alternative configuration locations for testing purposes. .IP \fB\-help\fR 4 .IX Item "-help" Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. .SH EXAMPLES .IX Header "EXAMPLES" The following example illustrates the kind of output that can appear when a volume operation was about to be attempted on the Volume Server on \f(CW\*(C`fs1.example.com\*(C'\fR, but the process performing the operation never actually did anything with the volume: .PP .Vb 9 \& % vos status fs1.example.com \& \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- \& transaction: 575 created: Fri Oct 16 16:55:54 2009 \& attachFlags: offline \& volume: 536871080 partition: /vicepb procedure: TransCreate \& \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- \& % vos endtrans fs1.example.com 575 \& % vos status fs1.example.com \& No active transactions on fs1.example.com .Ve .SH "PRIVILEGE REQUIRED" .IX Header "PRIVILEGE REQUIRED" The issuer must be listed in the \fI/etc/openafs/server/UserList\fR file on the machine specified with the \fB\-server\fR argument. If the \fB\-localauth\fR flag is included, the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local superuser \f(CW\*(C`root\*(C'\fR. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fBvos\fR\|(1), \&\fBvos_status\fR\|(1) .SH COPYRIGHT .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 2009 Sine Nomine Associates .PP This documentation is covered by the BSD License as written in the doc/LICENSE file.
