Hello,

make sure that the volume that contains the mountpoint of the volume in 
question here is not mounted RW (and that it is, in fact, replicated).
A broken read-only-path is likely the issue here.

Use fs lq to quickly find out just which volume (RO or RW) is accessed at 
any point in your AFS tree.
