how are you all? vs what about you all?

The phrases are both acceptable, but they would be used in dissimilar contexts. 'How are you all?' is a common greeting to inquire about the well-being of a group of people. 'What about you all?' is more commonly used to ask for the opinion or situation of a group after discussing a topic.
