[gpfsug-discuss] AFM gateways

[Venkateswara R Puvvada]

It is not recommended to make NSD servers as gateway nodes for native GPFS 
protocol. Unresponsive remote cluster mount might cause gateway node to 
hang on synchronous operations (ex. Lookup, Read, Open etc..), this will 
affect NSD server functionality. More information is documented @

Hello,

any reason to not enable all NSD servers as gateway when using native
gpfs AFM?  Will they all pass traffic?

Thanks

Matt
