Hi

I seem to recall you can only have one primary GSSM and one backup GSSM the rest have to be std GSS but don't quote me on this please.

Yes, you are correct. There can only be one Primary and one Standby, so the other two need to be normal GSSs.

Please remember the primary/backup failover is not automatic and needs commmands entered on the standby if the primary fails.

We use 2 GSS in our network and they work very well.
