[OpenAFS] AFS handling of deleted open files

When a read-only replica is updated, and files still in use by processes
are modified or absent from the new version, what behavior do those
processes see?

What about in normal operation, if a file is in use while it's deleted
by the same client or a different client?

I'm working on the NFS behavior and just looking for a comparison.
Thanks in advance for any pointers.  This is probably all pretty
elementary, but my searches weren't turning up answers....
