In the process of rebuilding the metadata for our six volume advfs domain a
rmvol apparently failed (the rmvol was started and is no longer running, so
our guess is it abnormally terminated at some undetermined point).  Now,
when we try to balance, defragment, showfile, etc, we get a "set vol params
error EBAD_VDI (-1030)".  Doing a showfdmn for the domain yields:

We've gotten some suggestions from Dec for recovering from this (do another
rmvol, advscan, manually remove the volume), but are feeling a bit queasy.
Has anyone recovered from a similar situation or have some helpful hints or
tips?  Thanks.
