Common GPFS command principles

There are some common principles that you should keep in mind when you are running GPFS commands.

Those principles include:

• Unless otherwise noted, GPFS commands can be run from any node in the cluster. Exceptions are commands that are not supported in a particular operating system environment. Certain commands may additionally require the affected file system to be mounted.
• GPFS supports the "no" prefix on all Boolean type long (or dash-dash) options.
