That seems like a waste of a command. It would only be used in very
rare situations that are otherwise correctable (just vos release and
then vos remove.) And why can't vos remove, vos zap or vos delentry be
used to remove a non-released replica?
consider the case that you remsite something temporarily, leave the
data, and then addsite later when you want clients to see it again...
Keeping in mind that for up to two hours a client may rely on cached
VLDB entry, right? That is, the 'vos remsite' won't affect all clients
immediately (unless callbacks have been added for VLDB entries and I
missed it.)
Another case is "I just added a site to server X but meant to add to
server Y." As long as I haven't 'vos released' the volume, then 'vos
remsite' is the way to correct the VLDB entry.
