.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBvos convertROtoRW\fR converts a Read-Only volume into a Read/Write volume
when the original Read/Write volume is no longer available.  It's normal use
is to recover the Read/Write volume from a replica after a failed disk,
failed server, or accidental deletion.
.SH "CAUTIONS"
.IX Header "CAUTIONS"
The command name is case-sensitive.  It must be issued with the capital \*(L"\s-1RO\*(R"\s0
and \*(L"\s-1RW\*(R".\s0
.PP
After running vos convertROtoRW, the old file server will still contain
the old Read/Write copy of the volume, even if the \s-1VLDB\s0 no longer
references it. You can view the old volume with \fBvos listvol\fR, and you
should remove the old copy (for example, with \fBvos zap\fR) so that the
original file server will match the \s-1VLDB.\s0
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-server\fR <\fIserver name\fR>" 4
.IX Item "-server <server name>"
Identifies the file server machine that houses the Read-Only volume which
will be converted.  Provide the machine's \s-1IP\s0 address or its host name
(either fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation).  For details,
see \fBvos\fR\|(1).
.IP "\fB\-partition\fR <\fIpartition name\fR>" 4
.IX Item "-partition <partition name>"
Identifies the partition on the file server machine that houses the
Read-Only volume which will be converted.  Provide the full partition name
(for, example, \fB/vicepa\fR) or one of the abbreviated forms described in
\&\fBvos\fR\|(1).
.IP "\fB\-id\fR <\fIvolume \s-1ID\s0\fR>" 4
.IX Item "-id <volume ID>"
Specifies either the complete name or volume \s-1ID\s0 number of a Read/Write
volume.
.IP "\fB\-force\fR" 4
.IX Item "-force"
Don't ask for confirmation.
.IP "\fB\-cell\fR <\fIcell name\fR>" 4
.IX Item "-cell <cell name>"
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument
with the \fB\-localauth\fR flag. For more details, see \fBvos\fR\|(1).
.IP "\fB\-noauth\fR" 4
.IX Item "-noauth"
Assigns the unprivileged identity \f(CW\*(C`anonymous\*(C'\fR to the issuer. Do not
combine this flag with the \fB\-localauth\fR flag. For more details, see
\&\fBvos\fR\|(1).
.IP "\fB\-localauth\fR" 4
.IX Item "-localauth"
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
\&\fI/etc/openafs/server/KeyFile\fR file. The \fBvos\fR command interpreter presents it
to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual
authentication. Do not combine this flag with the \fB\-cell\fR argument or
\&\fB\-noauth\fR flag. For more details, see \fBvos\fR\|(1).
.IP "\fB\-verbose\fR" 4
.IX Item "-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.
.IP "\fB\-encrypt\fR" 4
.IX Item "-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.
.IP "\fB\-noresolve\fR" 4
.IX Item "-noresolve"
Shows all servers as \s-1IP\s0 addresses instead of the \s-1DNS\s0 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.
.IP "\fB\-config\fR <\fIconfiguration directory\fR>" 4
.IX Item "-config <configuration directory>"
Set the location of the configuration directory to be used. This defaults to
\&\fI/etc/openafs\fR, except if \fB\-localauth\fR is specified, in which case the
default is \fI/etc/openafs/server\fR. This option allows the use of alternative
configuration locations for testing purposes.
.IP "\fB\-help\fR" 4
.IX Item "-help"
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
ignored.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
The following example converts the read-only volume test3.readonly in
partition vicepb on server1 to a read-write volume:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&   % vos convertROtoRW server1 b test3.readonly
.Ve
.SH "PRIVILEGE REQUIRED"
.IX Header "PRIVILEGE REQUIRED"
The issuer must be listed in the \fI/etc/openafs/server/UserList\fR file on the
machine specified with the \fB\-server\fR argument and
on each database server machine.  If the \fB\-localauth\fR flag is included,
the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local
superuser \f(CW\*(C`root\*(C'\fR.
