Handling Server abends

Explanation:  NFS Gateway shadow files can get corrupted when a Server abend happens.

Action:  The following steps will clear the metadata NetWare stores for the files and directories on the Gateway volumes. This information will be automatically rebuilt except for NetWare file system trustee rights. You will need to reassign these.

  1. Execute gystop.ncf.

  2. Delete all files and directories in shadowVolume:\Gateway.

  3. Execute gystart.ncf to load nfsgy.nlm and gymount volumes. (Manually execute gymount for any additional volumes that are not handled by gystart.ncf).

  4. Reassign file system trustees to Gateway volumes.
