=head1 DESCRIPTION The B command takes a volume offline on the B. =head1 CAUTIONS Taking a volume offline that has existing callbacks will result in those callbacks being broken and clients not being able to access the volume. =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-server> > Identifies the file server machine where the volume resides. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see L. =item B<-partition> > Identifies the partition where the volume resides, on the file server machine named by the B<-server> argument. Provide the partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, C) or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see L. =item B<-id> > Specifies either the complete name or volume ID number of the volume. =item B<-unbless> If the volume resides on a fileserver running as a I (Demand Attach File Server), then the volume may be marked as I or I. A I server will not bring I volumes online unless the B<-bless> option to L is specified. See L for setting a volume to be I. =item B<-cell> > Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L. =item B<-noauth> Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L. =item B<-localauth> Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local F file. The B command interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> argument or B<-noauth> flag. For more details, see L. =item B<-verbose> Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and error messages appear. =item B<-encrypt> Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted across the network in clear text. =item B<-help> Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. =back =head1 EXAMPLES The following example takes an online volume offline: % vos offline -server sv7.stateu.edu -partition /vicepb -id root.afs The following example takes an online volume offline and marks it so that a B without B<-bless> will not bring it online: % vos offline -server sv7.stateu.edu -partition /vicepb -id root.afs \ -unbless =head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED The issuer must be listed in the F file on the machine specified with the B<-server> argument and on each database server machine. If the B<-localauth> flag is included, the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local superuser C. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L, =head1 COPYRIGHT IBM Corporation 2000.
