AFS on SAN?

Our management is contemplating incorporating AFS into an 
enterprise-wide move to SAN instead of locally attached 
disk.  This would obviously remove the replication 
advantage of AFS, but has anyone had any experience 
implementing this, or comments on it?

For example, we know that AFS has some specific requirements
 about what kind of filesystem it can write to -- our /vice 
partitions can't be Veritas.

I'd very much appreciate any input people can give.

Thanks for your help,
