I have a replicated volume (on the same server and partition as its RW
volume) that won't attach, and won't respond to salvaging.  Here's the
SalvageLog entry when salvaging the single volume:

# bos salvage sun43 s 536871053 -showlog
[...salvaging...]
SalvageLog:
@(#)Base configuration afs3.6 2.5

Temporary file /viceps/salvage.inodes.c2t0d2s6.2142 is missing...

How do I recover from a volume that won't salvage?  Being a clone, will
a "vos remove; vos addsite" work on this volume?
