My RW server went down due to apparent hardware problems, and happened
in the middle of a vos release. A very important volume is thus in this
state:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
# vos exa srv_www
Could not fetch the information about volume 536870954 from the server
Possible communication failure
Error in vos examine command.
Possible communication failure
Dump only information from VLDB
srv_www
RWrite: 536870954 ROnly: 536870955 RClone: 536870955
number of sites -> 3
server valhalla.icequake.net partition /vicepa RW Site -- New release
server xanadu.icequake.net partition /vicepa RO Site -- Old release
server valhalla.icequake.net partition /vicepa RO Site -- New release
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it possible to bring the "old release" volume online in the meantime
or am I just screwed until I bring the RW server back and re-release? I
can't find any obvious way to clear the release flag manually.
