You can also speed up the startup of Spectrum Scale (GPFS) by using the 
nsddevices exit  to supplement or bypass the normal "scan all block 
devices" process by Spectrum Scale. Useful if you have lots of LUNs or 
other block devices which are not NSDs, or for multipath. Though later 
versions of Scale might have fixed the scan for multipath devices. Anyway, 
this is old but potentially useful
