You actually don't make the partitions available to AFS filespace, you
just move volumes to them. The partition is just a place to store
volumes on (like a volume is just a place to store files in). Look at
the output of "vos help addsite" and "vos help create" - there's a
partition to be specified. Simply specify "b" instead of "a" and the
volume goes to the second partition on the file server.

HTH! Tino.
