=head1 DESCRIPTION The B command formats and displays information from the Volume Location Database (VLDB) entry and the volume header of the volume specified by the B<-id> argument. To display the volume header only, use the B command. To display information from the VLDB only, use the B command. =head1 CAUTIONS =include fragments/volsize-caution.pod =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-id> > Specifies either the complete name or volume ID number of the volume, which can be read/write, read-only, or backup. =item B<-extended> Displays statistics about read and write operations on files and directories in the volume. =item B<-format> Shows information in a format suitable for machine parsing. =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 C 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. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later. =item B<-noresolve> Shows all servers as IP addresses instead of the DNS name. This is very useful when the server address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing with multi-homed servers. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later. =item B<-help> Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. =back =head1 OUTPUT The first seven lines of the output show information from the volume header and the remaining lines come from the VLDB. Each item in the following list corresponds to a line of output derived from the volume header. =over 4 =item * Basic information about the specified volume (displayed on a single line): =over 4 =item * Name =item * Volume ID number =item * Type (the flag is C for read/write, C for read-only, C for backup) =item * Size in kilobytes (C<1024> equals a megabyte) =item * Number of files in the volume, if the B<-extended> flag is provided =item * Status on the file server machine, which is one of the following: =over 4 =item On-line The volume is completely accessible to Cache Managers. =item Off-line The volume is not accessible to Cache Managers, but does not seem to be corrupted. This status appears while a volume is being dumped, for example. =item Off-line**needs salvage** The volume is not accessible to Cache Managers, because it seems to be corrupted. Use the B or B command to repair the corruption. =back =back =item * The file server machine and partition that house the volume, as determined by the command interpreter as the command runs, rather than derived from the VLDB or the volume header. =item * The volume ID numbers associated with the various versions of the volume: read/write (C), read-only (C), backup (C), and ReleaseClone (C). One of them matches the volume ID number that appears on the first line of the volume's output. If the value in the C, C, or C field is C<0> (zero), there is no volume of that type. If there is currently no ReleaseClone, the C field does not appear at all. =item * The maximum space quota allotted to the read/write copy of the volume, expressed in kilobyte blocks in the C field. =item * The date and time the volume was created, in the C field. If the volume has been restored with the B, B, or B command, this is the restore time. For a read-only volume, this is the last release time. =item * The date and time this copy of this volume was created, in the C field. This is the time when the volume was created on this server and partition. For read-only volumes, it is not updated by a release (unlike the Creation date). The copy date is not stored in volume dumps. =item * The date and time when the contents of the volume last changed, in the C field. For read-only and backup volumes, it matches the timestamp in the C field. =item * The number of times the volume has been accessed for a fetch or store operation since the later of the two following times: =over 4 =item * 12:00 a.m. on the day the command is issued =item * The last time the volume changed location =back =back When the B<-extended> flag is included, two tables appear next: =over 4 =item * The table labeled C contains information on the number of reads (fetches) and writes (stores) made on the specified volume. =item * The table labeled C contains information on writes made to files and directories in the specified volume. =back If the following message appears instead of the previously listed information, it indicates that a volume is not accessible to Cache Managers or the B command interpreter, for example because a clone is being created. **** Volume is busy **** If the following message appears instead of the previously listed information, it indicates that the File Server is unable to attach the volume, perhaps because it is seriously corrupted. The F and F log files in the F directory on the file server machine possibly provide additional information; use the B command to display them. **** Could not attach volume **** Following a blank line, information from the VLDB entry appears. Each item in this list corresponds to a separate line in the output: =over 4 =item * The base (read/write) volume name. The read-only and backup versions have the same name with a C<.readonly> and C<.backup> extension, respectively. =item * The volume ID numbers allocated to the versions of the volume that actually exist, in fields labeled C for the read/write, C for the read-only, C for the backup, and C for the ReleaseClone. (If a field does not appear, the corresponding version of the volume does not exist.) The appearance of the C field normally indicates that a release operation did not complete successfully; the C and C flags often also appear on one or more of the site definition lines described just following. =item * The number of sites that house a read/write or read-only copy of the volume, following the string C<< number of sites -> >>. =item * A line for each site that houses a read/write or read-only copy of the volume, specifying the file server machine, partition, and type of volume (C for read/write or C for read-only). If a backup version exists, it is understood to share the read/write site. Several flags can appear with a site definition: =over 4 =item Not released Indicates that the vos release command has not been issued since the B command was used to define the read-only site. =item Old release Indicates that a vos release command did not complete successfully, leaving the previous, obsolete version of the volume at this site. =item New release Indicates that a vos release command did not complete successfully, but that this site did receive the correct new version of the volume. =back =item * If the VLDB entry is locked, the string C, as well as (in OpenAFS 1.5.75 and later) one or more of the following strings: =over 4 =item Volume is locked for a move operation Indicates that the volume was locked due to a B or a B command. =item Volume is locked for a release operation Indicates that the volume was locked due to a B command. =item Volume is locked for a backup operation Indicates that the volume was locked due to a B command. =item Volume is locked for a delete/misc operation Indicates that the volume was locked due to a B, B, B, B, B, B, B, or B command. =item Volume is locked for a dump/restore operation Indicates that the volume was locked due to a B or B command. =back =back For further discussion of the C and C flags, see L. =head1 EXAMPLES The following example shows output for the Example Corporation volume called C with two read-only replication sites (this volume is mounted at the F directory). For the sake of illustration, the output shows the volume as locked. % vos examine usr usr 536870981 RW 3459 K On-line fs2.example.com /vicepb RWrite 5360870981 ROnly 536870982 Backup 536870983 MaxQuota 40000 K Creation Mon Jun 12 15:22:06 1989 Copy Mon Jun 12 15:22:06 1989 Last Update Fri Jun 16 09:34:35 1989 5719 accesses in the past day (i.e., vnode references) RWrite: 5360870981 ROnly: 536870982 Backup: 536870983 number of sites -> 3 server fs1.example.com partition /vicepa RO Site server fs3.example.com partition /vicepa RO Site server fs2.example.com partition /vicepb RW Site Volume is currently LOCKED The following example shows the output for the volume C using the B<-extended> flag.
