PROGRAM:

NAME


vos_unlock - Unlocks a single VLDB entry

SYNOPSIS


vos unlock -id <volume name or ID>
[-cell <cell name>]
[-noauth] [-localauth]
[-verbose] [-encrypt] [-noresolve] [-help]

vos unlock -i <volume name or ID>
[-c <cell name>]
[-noa] [-l] [-v] [-e] [-nor] [-h]

DESCRIPTION


The vos unlock command releases the lock on the Volume Location Database (VLDB) entry for
the indicated volume.

CAUTIONS


Do not user this command under normal circumstances.

It is useful if the VLDB entry is locked but there is no reason to suspect inconsistency
within the volume or between it and the VLDB. Note that it is possible to list information
from locked VLDB entries, even though they cannot be manipulated in other ways.

The vos unlockvldb command unlocks several VLDB entries at once, or even the entire VLDB.
The vos lock command locks a VLDB entry so that no one else can perform an action that
requires writing the VLDB.

OPTIONS


-id <volume name or ID>
Specifies either the complete name or volume ID number of a volume of any of the three
types.

-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the
-localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).

-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag
with the -localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).

-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile
file. The vos command interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location
Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell argument
or -noauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).

-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.

-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.

-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.

-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES


The following example unlocks the VLDB entry for the volume "user.terry".

% vos unlock user.terry

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED


The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine
specified with the -server argument and on each database server machine. If the -localauth
flag is included, the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local
superuser "root".
