The hsmdistributedrecall option specifies whether a node that is running as owner node can delegate recall requests to other nodes in a GPFS™ cluster.
To stop distributed recalls for an entire cluster, set this option to NO for all HSM nodes in the cluster and restart the dsmrecalld daemons. Then, only the HSM owner node can recall migrated files to the space-managed file systems it owns.
Place this option at the beginning of the dsm.sys file before any server stanzas.
