So, that's my plan:

- stop the openafs-fileserver
- unmount the vice-partition
- check it via linux-fsck
- enlarge the partition
- resize it with resize2fs
- mount it again
- restart the openafs-fileserver


That's exactly the same, like what I do with a normal partition (expect stop/start openafs-fileserver).

Is that the correct way?

Yes it is. Salvager starts automatically on fileserver restart.

Or are there any special openafs-things that I should do
additionally?!

No openafs-things... but remember to backup your data.

I had to shrink afs-partitions once (in order to get space for my
backup-system, which is in fact a vos-dump to files). I made the same
steps as in your plan and it worked fine for me. But I have had backups
of each volume on an other server, so an accident would not have led to
data loss.
