Hi Horst,
You're right, /vicepa on corvus went boom, I have no idea how or why, but it's definitely gone, it was a loopback file from a local filesystem and when the system was rebooted the original file disappeared entirely. Is it possible to copy the volumes from raven or do they need to be remade in their entirety? I've tried vos copy root.afs raven /vicepa root.afs corvus /vicepa -verbose but it just says the volume already exists, so I then tried a syncvldb thinking that perhaps the vldb needed to know there was a problem but it reported successful and still lists corvus' old volumes in listvldb.
Anyone have any ideas?
Regards Eric

No volumes on corvus?
Now, I think that's the reason for your error "-bash: cd: service: Connection timed out" you posted earlier. Your volumes on 'corvus' are either gone or unaccessable by the clients.
The first is very easy to check. Take a look into you AFS partition if the partition mounted there is still there. Which means if you see any files in there the physical access to your partition is working.
For the second one if you can afford some out time, you can just restart the filserver by using the "bos restart" command and let those volumes be attached again. If that doens't work just tell us what's happening ;-)
The question still remains how you got there...
Horst
