No. If the fileserver (box A) goes down, none of the files/volumes there are available. > Also, do I have to set up a read-only volume for this? Yes, but the RO volume will need to be on a second fileserver (box C) in order to be available if box A goes down. If you create a RO volume on the same machine, that will help if you loose the partition that holds the RW volume, but won't help if the whole thing crashes.
