So to clarify, the wiki should be changed from When doing a "df -h" on a client, the AVAILABLE disk space will display the maximum disk space of the servers in the cluster. So if you have two servers with 50 gigs and 100 gigs of free disk space, you will see 100 gigs available even though one server only has 50 gigs free to this? When doing a "df -h" on a client, the AVAILABLE disk space will display the maximum disk space of the first AFR sub volume defined in the spec file. So if you have two servers with 50 gigs and 100 gigs of free disk space, and the server with 100 gigs is listed first, then you will see 100 gigs available even though one server only has 50 gigs free
