There were several different real and made-up hostnames and company names used throughout our documentation examples. The IETF has reserved "example.com" and other "example" TLDs for use in examples (RFC 2606). Replace almost all references to ABC Corporation, DEF Corporation, and State University, as well as "abc.com", "bigcell.com", "def.com", "def.gov", "ghi.com", "ghi.gov", "jkl.com", "mit.edu", "stanford.edu", "state.edu", "stateu.edu", "uncc.edu", and "xyz.com". Standardize on "Example Corporation", "Example Network", "Example Organization" (example.com, example.net, and example.org). The Scout documentation in the Admin Guide contains PNG images that contain the old cell names, so I left those references until the images can be replaced.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<vos delentry> command removes the Volume Location Database (VLDB)
|
|
entry for each specified volume. A specified volume can be any of the
|
|
three types (read/write, read-only, or backup), but the entire entry is
|
|
removed no matter which type is provided. The command has no effect on the
|
|
actual volumes on file server machines, if they exist.
|
|
|
|
This command is useful if a volume removal operation did not update the
|
|
VLDB (perhaps because the B<vos zap> command was used), but the system
|
|
administrator does not feel it is necessary to use the B<vos syncserv> and
|
|
B<vos syncvldb> commands to synchronize an entire file server machine.
|
|
|
|
To remove the VLDB entry for a single volume, use the B<-id> argument. To
|
|
remove groups of volumes, combine the B<-prefix>, B<-server>, and
|
|
B<-partition> arguments. The following list describes how to remove the
|
|
VLDB entry for the indicated group of volumes:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
For every volume whose name begins with a certain character string (for
|
|
example, C<sys.> or C<user.>): use the B<-prefix> argument.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
Every volume for which the VLDB lists a site on a certain file server
|
|
machine: specify the file server name with the B<-server> argument.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
Every volume for which the VLDB lists a site on a partition of the same
|
|
name (for instance, on the F</vicepa> partition on any file server
|
|
machine): specify the partition name with the B<-partition> argument.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
Every volume for which the VLDB lists a site one a specific partition of a
|
|
file server machine: specify both the B<-server> and B<-partition>
|
|
arguments.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
Every volume whose name begins with a certain prefix and for which the
|
|
VLDB lists a site on a file server machine: combine the B<-prefix> and
|
|
B<-server> arguments. Combine the B<-prefix> argument with the
|
|
B<-partition> argument, or both the B<-server> and B<-partition>
|
|
arguments, to remove a more specific group of volumes.
|
|

|
|
|
|
=head1 CAUTIONS
|
|
|
|
Do not use this command to remove a volume in normal circumstances; it
|
|
does not remove a volume from the file server machine, and so is likely to
|
|
make the VLDB inconsistent with state of the volumes on server
|
|
machines. Use the B<vos remove> command to remove both the volume and its
|
|
VLDB entry.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<-id> <I<volume name or ID>>+
|
|
|
|
Specifies the complete name or the volume ID number of each volume for
|
|
which to remove the VLDB entry. The entire entry is removed, regardless of
|
|
whether the read/write, read-only, or backup version is indicated.
|
|
Provide this argument or some combination of the B<-prefix>, B<-server>,
|
|
and B<-partition> arguments.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-prefix> <I<prefix of volume entry>
|
|
|
|
Specifies a character string of any length; the VLDB entry for a volume
|
|
whose name begins with the string is removed. Include field separators
|
|
(such as periods) if appropriate. Combine this argument with the
|
|
B<-server> argument, B<-partition> argument, or both.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-server> <I<server name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies a file server machine; if a volume's VLDB entry lists a site on
|
|
the machine, the entry is removed. Provide the machine's IP address or its
|
|
host name (either fully qualified or using an unambiguous
|
|
abbreviation). For details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
Combine this argument with the B<-prefix> argument, the B<-partition>
|
|
argument, or both.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-partition> <I<partition name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies a partition; if a volume's VLDB entry lists a site on the
|
|
partition, the entry is removed. Provide the partition's complete name
|
|
with preceding slash (for example, F</vicepa>) or use one of the three
|
|
acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
Combine this argument with the B<-prefix> argument, the B<-server>
|
|
argument, or both.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-cell> <I<cell name>>
|
|
|
|
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument
|
|
with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-noauth>
|
|
|
|
Assigns the unprivileged identity C<anonymous> to the issuer. Do not
|
|
combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-localauth>
|
|
|
|
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
|
|
F</usr/afs/etc/KeyFile> file. The B<vos> command interpreter presents it
|
|
to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual
|
|
authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> argument or
|
|
B<-noauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-dryrun>
|
|
|
|
Show the actions which would be taken, but do not make changes.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-verbose>
|
|
|
|
Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's
|
|
execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and error messages
|
|
appear.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-encrypt>
|
|
|
|
Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted
|
|
across the network in clear text. This option is available in OpenAFS
|
|
versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-noresolve>
|
|
|
|
Shows all servers as IP addresses instead of the DNS name. This is very
|
|
useful when the server address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing
|
|
with multi-homed servers. This option is available in OpenAFS
|
|
versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-help>
|
|
|
|
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
=head1 OUTPUT
|
|
|
|
The following message confirms the success of the command by indicating
|
|
how many VLDB entries were removed.
|
|
|
|
Deleted <number> VLDB entries
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The following command removes the VLDB entry for the volume C<user.temp>.
|
|
|
|
% vos delentry user.temp
|
|
|
|
The following command removes the VLDB entry for every volume whose name
|
|
begins with the string C<test> and for which the VLDB lists a site on the
|
|
file server machine C<fs3.example.com>.
|
|
|
|
% vos delentry -prefix test -server fs3.example.com
|
|
|
|
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
The issuer must be listed in the F</usr/afs/etc/UserList> file on the
|
|
machine specified with the B<-server> argument and 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>.
