You may know this already, but just for the record serving files by AFS means NOT serving them by these other means. AFS's server structure dictates that. In the situation you describe, the only likely option is to export luns via FC or iscsi to your afs fileservers, and have them serve AFS as normal.
You can mix serving the same set of files by NFS and CIFS, and you can mix serving raw block devices by iscsi & fibre channel, and AFS will have to be a separate category.
