turn contains one or more AFS::Object::VolumeHeader objects,
as well as an AFS::Object::VLDBEntry, which contains one or
more AFS::Object::VLDBSite objects.

    my $result = $vos->examine
      (
       id			=> $volname,
       cell			=> $cell,
      ) || die $vos->errors();

    foreach my $header ( $result->getVolumeHeaders() ) {
	my ($server,$partition) = ($header->server(),$header->partition());
	print "[header] server = $server, partition = $partition\n";
    }

    my $vldbentry = $result->getVLDBEntry();

    foreach my $vldbsite ( $vldbentry->getVLDBSites() ) {
	my ($server,$partition) = ($vldbsite->server(),$vldbsite->partition());
	print "[vldbsite] server = $server, partition = $partition\n";
    }

Each of these objects has the following attributes and methods:

B<AFS::Object::Volume>

This object is nothing more than a container for the VolumeHeader and
VLDBEntry objects, and has no attributes of its own.  It has two
methods for extracting the objects it contains.

    Methods			Returns
    -------			-------
    getVLDBEntry()		a single AFS::Object::VLDBEntry object
    getVolumeHeaders()		list of AFS:Command::Result::VolumeHeader objects

B<AFS::Object::VLDBEntry>

This object is created by parsing this stanza of output:

    root.afs
	RWrite: 536918445     ROnly: 536918450
	number of sites -> 6
	   server pasafq3 partition /vicepc RW Site
	   server pasafq3 partition /vicepc RO Site
	   server pasafq1 partition /viceph RO Site
	   server pasafq2 partition /vicepg RO Site
	   server pasafq4 partition /vicepc RO Site
	   server pasafq5 partition /vicepg RO Site

The object attributes are taken from the first two lines of output:

    root.afs
	RWrite: 536918445     ROnly: 536918450

The following attributes should always be present:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    name			Volume name
    rwrite			Numeric Volume ID for the RW volume
    locked			Boolean value, indicating the VLDB entry is locked or not

The following attributes may be present, if there are volumes of the
associated type in the VLDB entry:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    ronly			Numeric Volume ID for the RO volume
    backup			Numeric Volume ID for the BK volume
    rclone			Numeric Volume ID for the RClone volume, if present

Note that the 'rclone' attribute is only present if the volume was
actively being cloned while being examined.  This is true when a 'vos
release' command is actively updating the RO volumes.

The following methods are available:

    Methods			Returns
    -------			-------
    getVLDBSites()		list of AFS::Object::VLDBSite objects

B<AFS::Object::VLDBSite>

This object is created by parsing the individual VLDB sites in the
VLDB entry, namely the lines such as:

	   server pasafq5 partition /vicepg RO Site

The following attributes are always available:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    server			Fileserver hostname
    partition			Fileserver /vice partition name
    type			"RO" | "RW" | "BK"
    status			Site status.

Note that the status is the field indicating the state of the volume
during a 'vos release' command, and this will be an empty string for
VLDB entries which are completely in sync.

B<AFS::Object::VolumeHeader>

This object is created by parsing the volume header stanza, such as:

    root.afs                          536908042 RW         23 K  Off-line
        npiafa3 /viceph
        RWrite  536908042 ROnly  536908046 Backup          0
        MaxQuota          0 K
        Creation    Sat Sep 23 03:41:50 2006
        Copy        Fri Aug 31 01:12:21 2007
        Backup      Fri Oct 17 20:59:02 2003
        Last Update Sat Nov  7 15:12:40 1998
        0 accesses in the past day (i.e., vnode references)

Note that there may very well be more than one of these, if a
.readonly is examined, since the volume headers for all of the RO
volumes will be queried.

The attributes available in this object depend on the method
arguments, as well as the state of the volume (less information can be

    foreach my $partition ( $result->getPartitionNames() ) {
	print "Server '$server' has partition '$partition'\n";
    }

The FileServer object has no attributes at all, it merely contains the
Partition objects.  Since the Partition objects are indexed by name,
there's no need to extract the partition objects and query their
attributes, since once you have the names, you have all the information
already.

Compare this with 'vos partinfo', which provides a lot more
information.  For pedantic completeness (the author is kinda
anal-retentive in that way), here's the description of the complete
interface.

B<AFS::Object::FileServer>

This object has no attributes, and is merely a container for the
AFS::Object::Partition objects.  It has the following methods
for extracting the objects is contains.

    Methods			Returns
    -------			-------
    getPartitionNames()		list of strings (partition names)
    getPartitions()		list of AFS::Object::Partition objects
    getPartition($partname)	a single AFS::Object::Partition object,
				for the partition named $partname

B<AFS::Object::Partition>

This object has one boring attribute:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    partition			Fileserver /vice partition name

When used to encapsulate 'vos listpart' output, this object has no
relevant methods.  Note, however, that this version of the API reuses
this object to represent other partition-related data (see 'vos
listvol' method documentation, for example), but they are not relevant
in this usage of the object.  This multiple personality of the objects
may be changed in a future release, so don't get too attached to the
specific class names.

See the AFS::Object documentation for a discussion of the
planned evolution of the API.

=head2 listvldb

=over

=item Arguments

The vos help string is:

    vos listvldb: list volumes in the VLDB
    Usage: vos listvldb [-name <volume name or ID>] [-server <machine name>]
			[-partition <partition name>] [-locked] [-quiet] [-nosort]
			[-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-verbose] [-encrypt] 
    Where: -locked     locked volumes only
	   -quiet      generate minimal information
	   -nosort     do not alphabetically sort the volume names

The corresponding method invocation looks like:

    my $result = $vos->listvldb
      (
       # Optional arguments
       name			=> $name,
       server			=> $server,
       partition		=> $partition,
       locked			=> 1,
       quiet			=> 1,
       nosort			=> 1,
       cell                     => $cell,
       noauth                   => 1,
       localauth                => 1,
       verbose                  => 1,
       encrypt                  => 1,
      );

=item Return Values

This method returns an AFS::Object::VLDB object, which has a
few attributes, and contains one or more
AFS::Object::VLDBEntry objects, which in turn contain
AFS::Object::VLDBSite objects, as well as their own
attributes.

NOTE: the VLDBEntry and VLDBSite objects are the same as those used by
the 'examine' method, since that command also queries the VLDB for
part of its return values.  See that discussion above for some
relevant details on the parsing of those objects, which will no be
repeated here.

    my $result = $vos->listvldb
      (
       cell				=> $cell,
      ) || die $vos->errors();

    print("VLDB contains " . $result->total() " volumes, " .
	  $result->locked() . " of which are locked\n");

    foreach my $entry ( $result->getVLDBEntries() ) {
	my $name = $entry->name();
	foreach my $attr ( $entry->listAttributes() ) {
	    print "Volume $name has attribute $attr => " . $entry->$attr() . "\n";
	}
	foreach my $site ( $entry->getVLDBSites() ) {
	    my %attrs = $site->getAttributes();
	    while ( my($attr,$value) = each %attrs ) {
		print "Site has attribute $attr => $value\n";
	    }
	}
    }

Another way to slice and dice this data:

    foreach my $name ( $result->getVolumeNames() ) {
	my $entry = $result->getVLDBEntry( name => $name );
	....
    }

Each of these objects has the following attributes and methods:

B<AFS::Object::VLDB>

This object has two attributes, and several methods:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    total			Number of VLDBEntries in the results
    locked			Number of locked volumes in the results

    Methods			Returns
    -------			-------
    getVolumeNames()		list of volume names in the results
    getVolumeIds()		list of numeric volume IDs
    getVLDBEntry(name => $name)	the AFS::Object::VLDBEntry for name $name
    getVLDBEntry(id => $id)	the AFS::Object::VLDBEntry for id $id
    getVLDBEntries()		list of AFS::Object::VLDBEntry objects
    getVLDBEntryByName($name)   the AFS::Object::VLDBEntry for $name
    getVLDBEntryById($id)   	the AFS::Object::VLDBEntry for $id

NOTE: name to volume mappings are one to one, but id to volume
mappings are many to one, since a single logical VLDB entry can have
several IDs associated with it (RW, RO, BK, and/or RC).

B<AFS::Object::VLDBEntry>

This object also has a few attributes, and a few methods.  The 'name'
attribute is always present, but the others vary, depending on the
volume (again, see the 'examine' documentation for more verbosity).

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    name			Volume name
    rwrite			Numeric Volume ID for the RW volume
    ronly			Numeric Volume ID for the RO volume
    backup			Numeric Volume ID for the BK volume
    rclone			Numeric Volume ID for the RClone volume, if present
    locked			Boolean, indicating whether or not the VLDB entry is locked

    Methods			Returns
    -------			-------
    getVLDBSites()		list of AFS::Object::VLDBSite objects

B<AFS::Object::VLDBSite>

The following attributes are always available:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    server			Fileserver hostname
    partition			Fileserver /vice partition name
    type			"RO" | "RW" | "BK"
    status			Site status.

This object has no special methods.

=item Arguments

The vos help string is:

    vos listvol: list volumes on server (bypass VLDB)
    Usage: vos listvol -server <machine name> [-partition <partition name>]
		       [-fast] [-long] [-quiet] [-extended] [-cell <cell name>]
		       [-noauth] [-localauth] [-verbose] [-encrypt] 
    Where: -fast       minimal listing
	   -long       list all normal volume fields
	   -quiet      generate minimal information
	   -extended   list extended volume fields

The corresponding method invocation looks like:

       encrypt                  => 1,
      );

NOTE: 'extended' is not supported in this version of the API, and
specifying it will result in a warning, but not an error.  However,
'vos examine' does parse the extended output, so if you really want
that data you can get it on a volume by volume basis.  Adding support
