Will Celerra NSG8 control station reboot disrupt NAS services?
My Celerra control station has become unresponsive.
I suspect that the control station will need to be rebooted.
Everything I read says rebooting the control station is a non-event. The Level 1 chat support person says that it will "restart NAS services."
Does rebooting the control station cause a disruption in NAS services, or not?
No Events found!

Rebooting the CS will disrupt NAS services, but it will not disrupt access to your data. NAS services are required to manage the gateway, so you will not be able to manage it until the CS comes back up and NAS services finish starting.

UPDATE:
The management station has chewed through whatever it was, and is now responsive again. Actually it hasn't been this snappy in a long time. It was always a little sluggish until this morning. Then it was REAL sluggish, like 2-hours sluggish.
When I logged into the GUI, there is an error, "The Command Service was forced to shutdown."

As everyone stated already that rebooting the control station won't disrupt current client access to the data movers, it is worth noting that the following are examples of tasks (other than the obvious inability to manage in a unified configuration) that do require a control station to be fully online:
1) auto-extension of filesystems
2) failover of data movers
3) (scheduled) checkpoints
