Hi
I don't normally make requests of the lists but my colleague (Owen leBlanc)
is on leave.
I have a volume that has become locked. I'm not certain of the reason for
this or even how to trace the problem. There are actually 2 locked volumes
volume.name and volume.name.readonly. There is a cron job that usually runs
to releases the read/write to the read only (I've paused this for the time
being)
I realise that I can issue vos unlock -id volume.name BUT, I am unsure if
there are any potential problems that this could cause.
Can anyone offer any advice?
In this case I normally do an 'vos examine' for the volume and then
e 'vos status ' for the fileserver vos exameine showed me that the RW-volume
lives on. If that server doesn't show any activity on behalf of the volume I
think it's save to unlock the volume. Such a situation may be caused by a
volserver crash or a killed vos command or a network outage during a vos command.
