The answer was sort of... AFS could read & write happily to existing 
volumes... But the filesystem appeared to be hosed somewhere between the 
JFS itself & the disk... 


Probably due to a power outage last week on the ESS that holds the 
actual disk. I had to fsck the filesystems (/vicepa & /vicepb) before 
they'd mount, and I'm running a salvage now, but it looks like it's come 
back. Very strange, because it was only the JFS filesystems on that 
volumegroup that were affected. The jfs2 filesystems were fine... There 
are a whole lot (9) of empty volume files in the /vicepa filesystem 
though... They look like they're from attempts to move volumes late last 
week...
