Good morning all,

I'm planning to install a server farm of AFS servers here for various purpose.
Actually i have 3 servers with 1,8T of Raid 5 each one.

I'm newby about AFS and i would know if someone just did a similar 
configuration.
Here some question:

Where i can find a good step-by-step installation manual ?
I just copiled and installed the AFS server on the first machine but i have 
to configure all and i can't find valid info around.
Is correct to use a very big partition like 1,5T or is better use smaller 
partition ?
I will run 3 identical server and i would like to configure the space like 
an unique network-space for client and naturally i will need the 
replication feauture around the system so if one of the server will fail 
the datas will stay available for the clients.

Any ideas and help are appreciated..

Kind regards,
Simone
