It is still not clear if you have 1 or two database servers.
One of the severs may think the cell has only 1 database server
but the thinks the cell has 2.

What do you think your cell should look like now?
i.e. what machines have database servers, what machines
are file servers.

Depending on which client you run the vos listvol command
it might be talking to one or the other server.

After you changed around all the CellServDB files, did you stop
the data base processes on the server you removed?

What do these commands show:

Run from any machine:
  bos status server0.cell.name
  bos status server1.cell.name

  bos listhost server0.cell.name
  bos listhost server1.cell.name

Run from server0:
   vos listvol server0.cell.name
   vos listvol server1.cell.name

Run from server1:
   vos listvol server0.cell.name
   vos listvol server0.cell.name
