I've set up a couple of VM hosts to export some of its GPFS filesystem
via NFS to machines on that VM host[1,2].
Is live migration of VMs likely to work?
Live migration isn't a hard requirement, but if it will work, it could
make our life easier.

[1] AIUI, this is explicitly permitted by the licencing FAQ.
[2] For those wondering why we are doing this, it's that some users want
docker - and they can probably easily escape to become root on the VM.
Doing it this way permits us (we hope) to only export certain bits of
the GPFS filesystem.
