I notice this morning that GPFS finally supports Ubuntu 24.04

How does one prod Lenovo to add the 5.2.2.2 Client side and Support 
nodes download to Service Connect?

I have a pressing need for this to work around an issue with the kernel 
SMB file system driver when working with Microsoft DFS shares. TL;DR it 
was broken when they added IPv6 support in very early 4.x kernels and 
only works properly on a 6.6 or later kernel.

Currently I have to maintain a CentOS 7 machine with TuxCare ELS which 
is far from ideal and want to switch it to something supported as soon 
as possible.
