Let them fix their junk themselves then.  I'm rather annoyed that you
actually are brave enough to annoy us with dealing with this.  Seriously,
if just about IBMer is now a GPFS henchman in disguise I might as well
stop helping IBM at all.  And in FS land it really looks like that recently.

What about contributing to the in-kernel cluster filesystems instead of
making our lives a pain for your personal gain?
