Hi,
      This should do the trick:
          1.    cd /afs/.<cellname>
          2.    fs mkmount temp root.afs
          3.   cd temp
         4.    ln -sf <long cellname> <short cellname>
         5.    cd /afs/.<cellname>
         6.   fs rmm   temp
         7.   vos release root.afs

     Note: Must be in rw path to create symbolic link.


   Ivery.
