The OpenAFS volserver does not convey useful error details to the vos
tool.  Nor does the OpenaFS vos indicate to you which server the error
was returned from.  You need to examine the VolserLog file on both
servers to identify the actual error.

You are assuming that the problem occurred on server2 when it might have
occurred on server1.  Since there is no RO site on server1 the vos tool
will attempt to create a clone for the purpose of replicating it.

You are most likely accessing the RW volume not the RO volume.

Examine the VolserLog files and report back what you find.  If there are
no useful details, raise the log level to 125 on both volservers and
re-attempt the release.  Then examine the VolserLog files.
