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
obtained when a volume is busy, for example).

The following attributes should always be present.

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    id				Numeric Volume ID
    status			online | offline | busy
    attached			Boolean

The 'attached' attribute is a Boolean that indicates whether or not
the volume is attached by the volserver.  A volume which can not be
brought online due to volume header problems will be offline, and
unattached (attached == 0), but a volume can be offline for other
reasons, (eg. vos offline, or more than one volume with the same ID on
the same server), and still be attached (attached == 1).

The following attributes are present only if the volume's status is
'online':

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    name			Volume Name
    type			"RO" | "RW" | "BK"
    size			Numeric size in KB
    server			Fileserver hostname
    partition			Fileserver /vice partition
    maxquota			Volume quota in KB
    creation			Volume creation date (ctime format, eg: Sat Oct  6 04:39:50 2001)
    copyTime			Volume copy date   (also in ctime format)
    backupTime			Volume backup date (also in ctime format)
    access      Volume Last Access date (also in ctime format)
    update			Volume update date (also in ctime format)
    accesses			Number of volume accesses since the last reset
    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

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 attributes are only present if the 'extended' argument
was specified (see below for details on access the raw and author
stats):

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    files			Number of files in the volume
    raw				Generic AFS::Object object
    author			Generic AFS::Object object

The 'raw' and 'author' stats are implemented as a hierarchy of simple,
generic AFS::Object objects, which have nothing but a couple
of attributes, and no special methods associated with them.

The 'raw' object has the following attributes:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    reads			Generic AFS::Object object
    writes			Generic AFS::Object object

Both of the 'reads' and 'writes' objects have the following
attributes:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    same			Generic AFS::Object object
    diff			Generic AFS::Object object

Both of the 'same' and 'diff' objects have the following attributes:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    total			Numeric value
    auth			Numeric value

The 'author' object has the following attributes:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    0sec			Generic AFS::Object object

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.

=head2 listvol

=over

=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:

    my $result = $vos->listvol
      (
       # Required arguments
       server			=> $server,
       # Optional arguments
       partition		=> $partition,
       fast			=> 1,
       long			=> 1,
       quiet			=> 1,
       extended			=> 1, # Not really... see below
       cell                     => $cell,
       noauth                   => 1,
       localauth                => 1,
       verbose                  => 1,
       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
for 'extended' to 'vos listvol' is on the todo list.

=item Return Values

This method returns an AFS::Object::VolServer object, which
merely contains one or more AFS::Object::Partition objects,
which in turn have a few attributes and contain one or more
AFS::Object::VolumeHeader objects.

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

B<AFS::Object::Partition>

This objects has several attributes, and several methods for
extracting the VolumeHeader objects.

    Attributes				Values
    ----------				------
    partition				Partition name
    total				Total number of volumes on the partition
    online				Total number of online volumes
    offline				Total number of offline volumes
    busy				Total number of busy volumes

    Methods				Returns
    -------				-------
    getVolumeIds()			List of volume ids
    getVolumeNames()			List of volume names
    getVolumeHeaderById($id)		the AFS::Object::VolumeHeader object for $id
    getVolumeHeaderByName($name)	the AFS::Object::VolumeHeader object for $name
    getVolumeHeaders()			list of AFS::Object::VolumeHeader objects
    getVolumeHeader( id => $id )	the AFS::Object::VolumeHeader object for $id
    getVolumeHeader( name => $name )	the AFS::Object::VolumeHeader object for $name

Note that both of the following are equivalent, but merely differ in style:

    getVolumeHeaderById($id)
    getVolumeHeader( id => $id )

And it should be obvious, but these are also equivalent we well:

    getVolumeHeaderByName($name)
    getVolumeHeader( name => $name )

B<AFS::Object::VolumeHeader>

The following attributes should always be present.

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    id				Numeric Volume ID
    status			online | offline | busy
    attached			Boolean

The 'attached' attribute is a Boolean that indicates whether or not
the volume is attached by the volserver.  A volume which can not be
brought online due to volume header problems will be offline, and
unattached (attached == 0), but a volume can be offline for other
reasons, (eg. vos offline, or more than one volume with the same ID on
the same server), and still be attached (attached == 1).

If the 'fast' argument was specified, then none of the other
attributes will be present.

The following attributes are present only if the volume's status is
'online':

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    name			Volume Name
    type			"RO" | "RW" | "BK"
    size			Numeric size in KB

The following attributes are present only if the 'long' argument was
specified:

    Attributes			Values
    ----------			------
    server			Fileserver hostname
    partition			Fileserver /vice partition
    maxquota			Volume quota in KB
    creation			Volume creation date (ctime format, eg: Sat Oct  6 04:39:50 2001)
    copyTime			Volume copy date   (also in ctime format)
    backupTime			Volume backup date (also in ctime format)
    access			Volume Last Access date (also in ctime format)
    update			Volume update date (also in ctime format)
    accesses			Number of volume accesses since the last reset
    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

=head2 partinfo

=over

=item Arguments

The vos help string is:

    vos partinfo: list partition information
    Usage: vos partinfo -server <machine name> [-partition <partition name>]
			[-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth]
			[-verbose] [-encrypt]

The corresponding method invocation looks like:

    my $result = $vos->partinfo
      (
       # Required arguments
       server			=> $server,
       # Optional arguments
       partition		=> $partition,
       cell                     => $cell,
       noauth                   => 1,
       localauth                => 1,
       verbose                  => 1,
       encrypt                  => 1,
      );

=item Return Values

This method returns an AFS::Object::FileServer object, which
contains one or more AFS::Object::Partition objects, which
have more interesting attributes than those returned by 'vos
partinfo'.
