So, if the cluster/afr volume is in the server specification instead of the client specification, and the 1st server in the afr array goes offline, the whole afr volume is unavailable for reads? I ask, because I noticed that if I had afr in server.vol it would hang when the other one went offline (in a :2 setup), but if I moved it to the client specification, it always works, even when the other half was offline. I think this is because in the client specification, I always had the local server first.
