For some reason, one of the backup processes had grabbed onto the
volume and didn't let go:

    /usr/bin/nsrfile -s -  afsasm -  /usr/bin/afs2nsr -s -p \
        '/v/o/osg.app.cmssoft.backup/' % -p \
        /v/o/osg.app.cmssoft.backup/ full

I killed this process and (on Steve's suggestion) started a salvage
of the cmssoft volume. The salvage completed a minute ago, and
access to the volume's data appears to be normal.

I'm not familiar enough with afs2nsr to quickly understand what
might have gone wrong. I imagine Steve will take a look at it when
he gets in.
