[OpenAFS] vos changeaddr -remove isnt removing an unreachable server

[Tim Prendergast]

It looks like all of our volumes have all of our afs servers listed. How
do I remove only the one from all of them so our releases work properly
again? I am trying to remove afsb2 from all of our volumes because our
releases all error out and do not complete to all the clients, citing
the fact that they cannot reach that server.

Example (we have 211 volumes):
tools.java.sun131 
    RWrite: 536871140     ROnly: 536871443     Backup: 536871718 
    number of sites -> 4
       server afsp partition /vicepa RW Site 
       server afsp partition /vicepa RO Site 
       server afsb partition /vicepa RO Site 
       server afsb2 partition /vicepa RO Site 

Regards,
Tim Prendergast

there is probably still a volume entry in the vldb which points to this 
server. Try a "vos listvldb -server <id>" to find out.
