For our HPC shares, we just implement one group per folder, essentially POSIX 
permissions.
Few groups want smb access.

Nearly all other shares are just SMB.

Of course its the most important one that uses smb and NFS!

Surely there must a be a guidance document on setting up dual protocol shares.

Subject: Re: [gpfsug-discuss] Supported samba options

We run stock Samba (not CES), with vfs_gpfs module enabled and we use POSIX 
ACL, it works well. Granted Windows permission do not map
1:1 to the POSIX ACL, some options will do nothing, but that's acceptable for 
us and avoid the use of the NFSv4 ACL, which are not supported by pretty much 
any common tool (e.g. rsync).
