Hi.

I've 4 fast questions about client cache. My volume looks like:

[root_at_homer-a /root]# cfs lv /coda/qmail/
  Status of volume 0x7f000004 (2130706436) named "qmailfs.rootvol"
  Volume type is ReadWrite
  Connection State is Connected
  Minimum quota is 0, maximum quota is unlimited
  Current blocks used are 9668
  The partition has 6908580 blocks available out of 6922096
  Write-back is disabled

1) What about Write-back? Is it better to set it enabled or disabled?
2) "The partition has 6908580 blocks available out of 6922096" does
it means that cache is empty? I think that this is the volume size...
if it is so, how can I see the cache size (used/free)?
3) How can I change cache size? Is it ok to shutdown venus, change
conf file, and restart it with --init options?
4) Is it safe (=recommended) to start venus and set it "strong"? Does
the strong option have a time limit or is it permament?

Thank you!!!
