[gpfsug-discuss] AFM Peer Snapshots over GPFS Protocol

Peer snapshots will not work for independent writers as they are purely
meant for Single Write. It will work both for GPFS and NFS protocols. For
AFM to work well with GPFS protocol, you should have high bandwidth,
reliable network.

Dear GPFS Experts,

I've worn my brain out today with AFM and Windows ACLs, but more questions
just keep on coming....

What's the story with Peer Snapshot functionality over GPFS protocol? Will
it ever work, or should I crank my nice setup down a notch to NFS?

Are peer snapshots supposed to work over NFS for Independent Writer mode
AFM caches, or just Single Writers?

Like Barry says, new AFM toys are great. Can we have more, please?

Cheers,
Luke,
