Probably you could vos delentry all the volumes on the old server, and
then vos syncvldb. 

In the future, it'd be a lot easier to keep the new server named the
same, or use vos move instead. Then you wouldn't even have an outage.

vldb<br>
&gt; .<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; when i run the syncvldb command with a single volume , it reports

&gt; <br>
&gt; the listvol showes the old volume on the new server correctly , but
in<br>
&gt; vldb it's still on the old server .<br>
&gt; do i have to run the syncserv command &nbsp;? or do i have to first
remove<br>
&gt; the old server out of the cell database ..<br>
