afs_volume_header - Represents an AFS volume
The
Vvol_ID.vol file is the header file for the AFS volume
with volume ID
vol_ID. There is one such file for each volume stored on
an AFS server (
/vicep) partition. The header file stores information
that includes the volume's name, ID number, type (read/write, read-only, or
backup), size and status (online, offline, or busy). To display information
from the header file, use the
vos listvol or
vos examine
command.
The header file points to, but does not contain, the actual data in the volume.
It is not possible to access the AFS data except by mounting the volume in the
AFS filespace and reading its contents through the Cache Manager.
