Simon in correct … I’d love to be able to support a larger block size for my 
users who have sane workflows while still not wasting a ton of space for the 
biomedical folks…. ;-)

A question … will the new, much improved, much faster mmrestripefs that was 
touted at SC17 require a filesystem that was created with GPFS / Tiger Shark / 
Spectrum Scale / Multi-media filesystem (<grin>) version 5 or simply one that 
has been “upgraded” to that format?

Thanks…

Kevin
