Many manpages for "vos" subcommands were not using the "common" vos fragments, and instead were just repeating the information directly in their manpage. Make them all use the "common" vos fragment to avoid duplication.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<vos changeloc> command changes the location of a volume in the
|
|
Volume Location Database (VLDB) without needing to contact the original
|
|
file server on which the volume was hosted. This is useful when a file
|
|
server has gone down permanently and the data that was stored on that
|
|
server has been moved to a new file server with a different name and IP
|
|
address (perhaps by mounting the same /vicepX partitions on a different
|
|
host). After moving the data and running B<vos changeloc>, run B<vos
|
|
syncvldb> and then B<vos syncserv> against the new server to ensure full
|
|
synchronization of the VLDB with the file server.
|
|
|
|
In essence, B<vos changeloc> performs the same operations on the VLDB as
|
|
B<vos move>, but it does NOT move the data from one server's file system
|
|
to another.
|
|
|
|
=head1 CAUTIONS
|
|
|
|
Using B<vos changeloc> changes the VLDB without modifying the file server
|
|
data, so it inherently causes the VLDB to be out of sync with the data on
|
|
the servers. It should only be used when recovering from server failure.
|
|
If the servers are on-line, B<vos move> should be used instead. It is
|
|
highly recommended that B<vos syncvldb> and B<vos syncserv> be run after
|
|
using the B<vos changeloc> command to ensure properly synchronization of
|
|
the VLDB with the file servers.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
B<vos changeloc> takes the following options:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<-server> <I<new server name>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the new server where the VLDB should believe the volume resides.
|
|
Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully qualified
|
|
or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-partition> <I<partition name>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the partition where the VLDB should believe the volume resides.
|
|
Provide the B<-server> argument along with this one. Provide the
|
|
partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, C</vicepa>)
|
|
or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-id> <I<volume name or ID>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the name or volume ID number on which to operate.

=head1 OUTPUT
|
|
|
|
B<vos changeloc> shows a brief message upon completion:
|
|
|
|
Changed location to server2 /vicepa for volume user.jdoe
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The following command changes the location of the C<user.jdoe> volume to
|
|
be F</vicepa> on the file server machine C<server2> while being verbose:
|
|
|
|
% vos changeloc server2 a user.jdoe -verbose
|
|
done
|
|
Changed location to server2 /vicepa for volume user.jdoe
|
|
|
|
The following command changes the location of the C<user.jdoe> volume to
|
|
be F</vicepa> on C<server1> without being verbose:
|
|
|
|
% vos changeloc server1 a user.jdoe
|
|
Changed location to server1 /vicepa for volume user.jdoe
|
|
|
|
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
The issuer must be listed in the F</usr/afs/etc/UserList> file on each
|
|
database server machine. If the B<-localauth> flag is included, the issuer
|
|
must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local superuser
|
|
C<root>.
