Thats is the problem - the OpenVPN server needs to route the traffic for 
packets from 172.16.40.0/24 to 172.16.10.0/24 (etc.) and vice versa.

Means:

(1) You have to enable routing on your server.
     On Linux, change/comment out "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" in
     /etc/sysctl.conf and run "sysctl -p"

(2) The clients/instances need to know how to reach the raodwarriors
     on 172.16.0.0/16. Since the OpnVPN server is not the gateway,
     you can either add network routes or use arp proxy (on the
     OpenVPN server) if the clients/instances use 172.16.0.0/16
     as subnet.

Cheers,
Mathias.
