In OpenAFS, all of the "smarts" are in the vos process. This process
has no knowledge of the network topology which is why OpenAFS has

Given the two-site scenario below, and successful manual replication as
outlined by Jeffrey further below, you then have two RO volumes at site
B as desired.
If "vos release" is enough of a problem to warrant this manual
intervention, then won't subsequent releases from the RW site A now be
twice
