Actuall.. vos examine completes, but it takes a very long time, like 2
minutes.

"connection timed out" looks like one of your fileservers could be down.

If the volume wouldn't be in the vldb you would get "no such device".=20
Only then a sync between filserver and vldb can help.

If you do "vos listvldb <volume name>" does it give the correct answer?
