Some vos commandos didn't finished like
vos listaddrs
vos examine root.cell (with tokens active)
vos examine root.cell -noauth (sometimes finished, sometimes didn't)
Some clients couldn't start AFS services.
I have restarted all vlservers with active write transaction doing:
bos restart -server $server -instance vlserver -localauth
This seams to fix all the problems. For the record if someone else is
in the same situation.
