rpc2portmap/updateclnt/updatesrv are not running. That's kind of
important during volume creation.

To get a correct VLDB, run '/etc/rc.d/init.d/update.init start', and
then 'bldvldb.sh'.

Ok, your VRList is messed up as well. You'll have to fix this by hand by
editing /vice/vol/VRList.

echo rootvol 7F000000       1 1000001 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 E0000100
			      ^ number of the volume replica is missing

And then run 'volutil makevrdb /vice/vol/VRList'. Hopefully any bad
state is fixed up after that.

Did you really expect the cleint to successfully bind to the volume
after all those errors during volume creation?
