Answered my own question here. In both cases (at least with GPFS 4.2)
the answer is "it doesn't work" which is what I figured certainly within
a single cluster but between clusters I had hoped there would be some
smarts to deal with multi-cluster situations given that all the plumbing
seems to be there to deal with it.
