Andrew Deason ade56fa2f9 doc: Make all vos pages =include common options
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 offline> command takes a volume offline on the
B<fileserver>.
=head1 CAUTIONS
Taking a volume offline that has existing
callbacks will result in those callbacks being broken
and clients not being able to access the volume.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-server> <I<machine name>>
Identifies the file server machine where 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>>
Identifies the partition where the volume resides, on the
file server machine named by the B<-server> argument. 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 either the complete name or volume ID number of the volume.
=item B<-sleep> <I<seconds to sleep>>
Specifies to sleep for a certain number of seconds after taking the
volume offline before bringing it online again. If this option is
specified, the volume will be online when B<vos offline> successfully
completes. If this option is not specified, B<vos online> must be run to
bring the volume online.
=item B<-busy>
Specifies to mark the volume as `busy' instead of `offline'. This
means that a program trying to access this volume will receive a VBUSY
error instead of a VOFFLINE error (until the volume is brought back
online).
Different programs may react differently when they see these two
different states, but in general a `busy' volume is only unavailable
for a short period of time and will become online soon. An `offline'
volume, on the other hand, is typically unavailable for longer periods
and may not come back online until an administrator intervenes.
As an example of when these states occur normally, a volume can be
`busy' when it is being cloned (perhaps as the result of a
B<vos backup> or B<vos release> operation). A volume can be `offline'
if a non-DAFS fileserver has detected a problem in the volume, and an
administrator must manually schedule a salvage for that volume before
it becomes available again.
If B<-busy> is specified, the B<-sleep> option must also be specified, to
indicate for how long to keep the volume busy.

=back
=head1 EXAMPLES
The following example takes an online volume offline:
% vos offline -server sv7.example.org -partition /vicepb -id root.afs
=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>.
