Simon is correct from that point of view. If you can see it on your commercial.lenovo.com site then you are able to use it within your licensing rules and that you are still compatible from a Spectrum Scale point of view. The DSS-G specific tarballs (2.6a, 2.6b, 3.0, etc...) should be used exactly as is for deploying the DSS-G, but then normal Spectrum scale client/server compatibility follows. The tarball will define what MUST run on the DSS-G NSDs, but after that you are free to download/use whichever client version you are entitled to -- which should correspond to what is visible on the website to download.
That's what I guessed, but nowhere does it ever state that. Thanks for confirming it. Email now filed away for a cover my back in the event of any license audit :-)
On a related note someone at IBM needs to update the extractor thing for the data access version so that it works properly on a HiDPI display. My understanding is that contract terms are unreadable are not valid in the UK and on my Surface Book (running Linux of course) the text is not readable :-)
