Where might I find information on tuning NFS for FreeBSD 2.2.7 (other
than the man pages)? And what is the news on NFS 3 performance and
reliability? I recently read a message here that said NFS 3 is very
broken in 2.2.7. True?
We have a server that is causing these messages to appear on clients:
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: not responding
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: is alive again
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: not responding
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: is alive again
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: not responding
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: is alive again
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: not responding
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: is alive again
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: not responding
nfs server nsfserv-i2:/data: is alive again
The pairs ("not responding" and "is alive again") seem to occur in the
same second, according to timestamps in /var/log/messages. Is this
from having some timeout threshhold set too low, not enough nfsds on
the server, not enough nfsiods on the client, a network problem, or
what? Is it a real problem or just an annoying diagnostic?
Thanks for whatever assistance you can offer.
