Hello to all,
Is there any technical reason why it is not supported to export GPFS from
Windows nodes using CIFS? As stated in GPFs FAQ (
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSFKCN/com.ibm.cluster.gpfs.doc/gpfs_faqs/gpfsclustersfaq.html
):

*Exporting GPFS file systems as Server Message Block (SMB) shares (also
known as CIFS shares) from GPFS Windows nodes is not supported.*

Or it is limitation more related to licensing and business point of view.
Thank you for answers,
Pavel
