In case anyone is interested, I figured out how to correct the problem.

I corrected the /etc/hosts file.
I deleted the entries for each volume from the VLDB. 
I then issued the vos syncvldb command. 

Everything works now. Thanks for all the help and suggestions, everyone.

Looks to me like you have a VLDB entry pointing to 127.0.0.1 instead of your server's real address.  Check that your server does not have a broken /etc/hosts which has the server's real hostname listed on the same line as 127.0.0.1.
