I thought the initial RO volume should be on the same server as the RW
volume.. for performance.

=20

The person who had my position before I got here had an afs tools server
(development environment) RW and RO,   home RW server,  home RO server

And two VLservers.   I'm going to request an additional servers,   split
the home directories across eng02 RW RO and eng03 RW RO  , and  add an
additional

Server for RO and backup volumes only.

Hi,

   My AFS deployment is much faster now that I've been cleaning up the
vldb.

One problem is that I noticed that many of the RO and RW volumes are on
the same server. ( I didn't do it, I inherited this)

It's good practice to have at least one RO on the RW site, so, leave it
be.=20

	So I want to migrate the RO volumes from ENG03 to ENG02.   But
there is a catch, When I list my VLDB I see this:

	=20

add a second site, keep the first, release the volume.
