[OpenAFS] Expanding/shrinking vice partitions

Hi,

I'm wondering if it may have any negative side effects if I change the 
size of a vice partition
while the file server is running?  For example when adding a new disk 
and then just expand
a vice partition via lvm.

Also, I noticed that if I move away all volumes from a partition, then 
it works to just umount
that partition and mount something else and then start moving volumes 
there; the AFSIDat and
other stiff seems to just be recreated without restarting fileserver.  
Is this something that is
"safe" to do?
