It was based on the AFS Version 3.0 protocol that was developed commercially by Transarc Corporation. AFS Version 3.0 was in turn based on the Andrew FileSystem Version 2.0 protocol also used by the Coda disconnected filesystem originally developed at Carnegie Mellon University . DCE DFS consisted of multiple cooperative components that provided a network filesystem with strong filesystem semantics, attempting to mimic the behavior of POSIX local file systems while taking advantage of performance optimizations when possible. A DCE DFS client system utilized a locally managed cache that would contain copies or regions of the original file. The client system would coordinate with a server system where the original copy of the file was stored to ensure that multiple clients accessing the same file would re fetch a cached copy of the file data when the original file had changed. The advantage of this approach is that it provided very good performance even over slow network connections because most of the file access was actually done to the local cached regions of the file.

Features Good performance of the filesystem is realised by grouping multiple directory entries into a single block and by grouping meta data blocks together into clusters. A free space bitmap bitmap is used to keep track of free space, and file data is kept track of using extents arranged into a B tree B tree structure.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 The AtheOS filesystem AFS was originally used in the AtheOS operating system , and is now a part of the Syllable operating system Syllable operating system. AFS started with exactly the same data structure s as the Be FileSystem , BFS, and extended its feature set in many ways. As such, AFS is a 64 bit journaled filesystem with support for file attributes. File indexing and soft deletion s are also partially supported. A few definitions Journaled All filesystem transactions are first written to a journal before they are executed. When mounted, the filesystem replays everything in the journal. So, if something catastrophic occurs as data is being written to the filesystem, the filesystem can recover. File Attributes Name value pairs tacked on to a file. For example, an audio file might have attributes for Artist, Title, and Album. This lets the filesystem search files in intelligent and flexible ways example search for all songs by Elton John that exist on the drive. File Indexing A persistent and up to date list of all files with a specific attribute, and the value of that attribute. So, the system may have an index for the Artist attribute on MP3 files. This speeds searching, but slows system performance when large numbers of files are created. Soft Deletions When the filesystem is told to delete a file, the file is actually hidden, and removed later by other means. In AFS, files are moved to an invisible directory and only deleted when the filesystem is next mounted.
