"listvol" lists the volumes off of a server -- it contacts the server and asks it to list the volumes it has. It doesn't touch the vldb. You can use "vos examine" to query the vldb (or vos listvldb for much longer information).
What this error set means is that the volume is on your server but not in your vldb. If you really really don't want this you can use "vos zap" to get rid of this volume (be careful -- "vos zap" is not to be used lightly). Your other option is to "vos syncvldb" to sync the vldb to the contents of the server -- and then you should be able to "vos remove" the file. -derek Ron Croonenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Hello all, > > I am trying to delete a volume, one of those that I created when I was trying > out stuff. > > Anyway.. > > when I do a : > vos listvol -server afsserv | grep dutch > > I get : > faculty.dutch 536871737 RW 2 K On-line > > when I try to : > [EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# vos remove -id faculty.dutch > Can't find volume name 'faculty.dutch' in VLDB > VLDB: no such entry > > but in the previous command vos did list it ? > > > any hints ? > > thanks, > > Ron > > ============================================================================ > Ron Croonenberg | Phone: 1 765 658 4761 > Technology Coordinator | Fax: 1 765 658 4732 > | > Department of ComputerScience | e-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] > DePauw University | > Julian Science & Math Center | > 602 South College Ave. | > Greencastle, IN 46135 | > ============================================================================ > _______________________________________________ > OpenAFS-info mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key available _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
