31 B<vos convertROtoRW> converts a Read-Only volume into a Read/Write volume
32 when the original Read/Write volume is no longer available. It's normal use
33 is to recover the Read/Write volume from a replica after a failed disk,
34 failed server, or accidental deletion.
38 The command name is case-sensitive. It must be issued with the capital "RO"
41 After running vos convertROtoRW, the old file server will still contain
42 the old Read/Write copy of the volume, even if the VLDB no longer
43 references it. You can view the old volume with B<vos listvol>, and you
44 should remove the old copy (for example, with B<vos zap>) so that the
45 original file server will match the VLDB.
51 =item B<-server> <I<server name>>
53 Identifies the file server machine that houses the Read-Only volume which
54 will be converted. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name
55 (either fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details,
58 =item B<-partition> <I<partition name>>
60 Identifies the partition on the file server machine that houses the
61 Read-Only volume which will be converted. Provide the full partition name
62 (for, example, B</vicepa>) or one of the abbreviated forms described in
65 =item B<-id> <I<volume ID>>
67 Specifies either the complete name or volume ID number of a Read/Write
72 Don't ask for confirmation.

80 The following example converts the read-only volume test3.readonly in
81 partition vicepb on server1 to a read-write volume:
83 % vos convertROtoRW server1 b test3.readonly

87 The issuer must be listed in the F</usr/afs/etc/UserList> file on the
88 machine specified with the B<-server> argument and
89 on each database server machine. If the B<-localauth> flag is included,
90 the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local
