mkserv has the following line:
case "${MACH}" in
DS3100)
SITE=var
;;
*)
SITE=site
;;
esac
It should be:
case "${MACH}" in
DS3100|MIPS)
SITE=var
;;
*)
SITE=site
;;
esac
The /srvd/.rvdinfo contains the keyword MIPS but after an update, will
contain DS3100.
I feel that the /srvd/.rvdinfo should contain MIPS.
Several solutions exist to the problem:
a) modify mkserv as above.
b) modify phase2.sh in creating /etc/version to change the machine type
listed.
I prefer (b) and will make changes to this affect. In future releases, mkserv
will have to be a little more intelligent as we add other types of
machines. (like DS5400 and DS5000).
