This means that, during about 10 days, DB servers with 2 different

I suspect it will work. None the less it sounds like you
have put fileservers on your DB servers. This is really
not ideal.
Why not? I too run fileservers on AFS DB servers.
I wouldn't say it's necessary, especially in a small cell, but it
does make things easier.
The other suggestion I'd make is to put /vicep* on external disks
(preferably RAID...). This makes upgrades almost trivial: shut down
old fileserver, unplug disk from old machine, plug into replacement,
boot. (Well, with a hostname change for the new machine, presumably.)
