Good thought, Steve.  I wonder if the reformatting is necessary?  When I've
varied DB volumes back online it's taken a while for them to resync, which
suggests that ADSM is completely refreshing the contents.  (With database
volumes having suspected format damage, one *would* want to reformat.)
Perhaps someone from development could tell us if a complete refresh occurs
when a DB volume is varied on.
