We installed the Networker client 4.21 on a Netware 5.1 sp6 server in order to 
hopefully be able to migrate from ArcServer to Networker.  In the process of 
our testing how well Networker would meet our needs the following happened with 
our Netware server.

A virtual device was loaded and a !<vol> was created in order to do a snapshot 
of the volume. This took place successfully for three of the volumes on the 
server.  Unfortunately the backup failed on the fourth volume with the 
following errors:

 * cs.syr.edu:DATA: Completed open file support for volume DATAhas been 
inactive for 33 minutes since Fri Dec  5 05:56:16 2003.
 * cs.syr.edu:DATA: is being abandoned by nsrexec.
 * gwpoa401.syr.edu:MAIL: Completed open file support for volume MAILhas been 
inactive for 33 minutes since Fri Dec  5 05:17:17 2003.
 * gwpoa401.syr.edu:MAIL: is being abandoned by nsrexec.

While I wasn't happy that the backup didn't work, I'm more concerned that the 
virtual device and volume did not unload after the failure.  The other servers, 
there were four in total, were successful in this process without issue.  I'm 
now wondering how to eliminate the !<vol> on both of these boxes.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
