+ As GPFS does not support the ACE4_FLAG_NO_PROPAGATE NFSv4 flag (which would be
+ the mapping for the DESC_DACL_PROTECTED flag), the status of this flag is
+ currently silently ignored by Samba. That means that if you deselect the "Allow
+ inheritable permissions..." checkbox in Windows' ACL dialog and then apply the
+ ACL, the flag will be back immediately.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ To make sure that automatic migration with e.g. robocopy does not lead to
+ ACLs silently (and unintentionally) changed, you can set
+ <command>gpfs:refuse_dacl_protected = yes</command> to enable an explicit
+ check for this flag and if set, it will return NT_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED so
+ errors are shown up on the Windows side and the Administrator is aware of
+ the ACLs not being settable like intended

- <para>The gpfs gpl libraries are required by <command>gpfs</command> VFS
- module during both compilation and runtime.
- Also this VFS module is tested to work on SLES 9/10 and RHEL 4.4
+ <para>
+ Depending on the version of gpfs, the <command>libgpfs_gpl</command>
+ library or the <command>libgpfs</command> library is needed at
+ runtime by the <command>gpfs</command> VFS module:
+ Starting with gpfs 3.2.1 PTF8, the complete <command>libgpfs</command>
+ is available as open source and <command>libgpfs_gpl</command> does no
+ longer exist. With earlier versions of gpfs, only the
+ <command>libgpfs_gpl</command> library was open source and could be
+ used at run time.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ At build time, only the header file <command>gpfs_gpl.h</command>
+ is required , which is a symlink to <command>gpfs.h</command> in
+ gpfs versions newer than 3.2.1 PTF8.
