I normally use the createvol_rep script. It uses volutil create_rep,
which might have the same problems, but at least it creates a replicated
volume, non-replicated volumes have some annoying side-effects like not
supporting disconnected operation. They are therefore almost unused
except for the read-only backup volumes.

What is the serverlog (/vice/srv/SrvLog) reporting?
