[OpenAFS] How to convert RO- to RW-Volumes

[Hartmut Reuter]

I wrote a "vos convert" two years ago for MR-AFS and Thomas M=FCller from=
=20
tu.chemnitz.de
ported this to OpenAFS and has based his backup concept on this feature.
So ask him where to get it. (It requires also changes to the volserver,=20
of course, not
just to the vos command).
