Frank,

I asked the same question not long ago and found out that the globus cert 
is for identification of a person not necessarily a machine. This has 
implications for nodes that are shared amongst several people, but I'm not 
sure how that is managed.  Perhaps someone on the AG team could suggest how 
to manage certificates for sites that have several AGnodes and more than 
one operator using any/all of them.
