serverA volume.readonly -> serverB volume.readonly works automaticly
serverA volume.readonly -> serverB volume (readwrite) does _not_ fail

Create r/o replicas on A (and on the same vice partition), too.
The problem with your setup is that OpenAFS clients use the r/o path

No, there is no failover from reading the RW when the RO goes away.

Hello,
I have 2 servers (lets called them A and B). The A holds all of the read/write
volumes, all of these volumes are replicated to B (read only). The OpenAFS
services
run on both, in pretty much identical set-up. Both servers also have the
OpenAFS clients.
