[OpenAFS] false fileserver in vldb, howto remove?

[Lars Schimmer]

Hi!

I am stuck on a small problem. While I redid one of my fileserver, it=20
started with a wrong IP and registered its volumes on the wrong IP.
Now I tryed to get rid of this IP.

I did:
vos delentry -server 172.24.25.81  (wrong IP)
Afterwards all my vldb entries were gone.
So I needed to:
vos syncvldb fileserver(1-4)
vos syncserv fileserver(1-4)

and the vos listvldb show all volumes fine and no sign of 172.24.25.81.
But a vos listaddr still shows that IP.
And a vos changeaddr 172.24.25.81 -remove shows me:

Could not remove server 172.24.25.81 from the VLDB
VLDB: volume Id exists in the vldb

and a  fs getserv

172.24.25.81                                       40001

Hmm.
3 Fileservers 1.6 debian, one 1.4.12, 3 DB servers on 1.6 debian.

(the three fileservers with a 172.24.25.x network do have a=20
/etc/openafs/NetRestrict file which includes:
172.24.25.255

And the Filelog does show, the fileserver does run on 129.27.218.x on=20
all 3 fileservers in question.
So the wrong IP is just still in DB, somehow.
How to remove it safe, secure and forever?
