I created a BosConfig file for the server to read at boot time, which
included all server processes. I have not moved the volumes.

afsd did start normally (mounted as well). I can see the /afs partition from
the output of df -k.
On the existing fileserver:
# ./vos examine root.afs
vsu_ClientInit: Could not get afs tokens, running unauthenticated.
VLDB: no such entry
#

# ./vos listvol servertest
vsu_ClientInit: Could not get afs tokens, running unauthenticated.
Total number of volumes on server 10.20.10.152 partition /vicepa: 4
root.afs                          536870924 RW          4 K On-line
root.afs.readonly                 536870925 RO          4 K On-line
root.cell                         536870927 RW         93 K On-line
root.cell.readonly                536870928 RO         93 K On-line
