[OpenAFS] Re: Feature wish: remove partition while fileserver keeps on running

[Jason Edgecombe]

Gerrit commit< http://gerrit.openafs.org/7108 > includes the previously 
discussed /vicepXX/NeverAttach flag. The commit has been merged into the 
master branch.

I can't close ticket 130561. Would someone close it, please?
