VID headers are empty they are not updated, only the volume table 1 and 2
VID headers are updated and in which LEB the data is written those VID
headers are updated. Rest of the PEB VID headers are empty. Volume rb tree
is empty. Because of this I am getting the error "the layout volume was not
found".
