Abstract

This talk highlights client side performance tuning over NFS, with Linux and NetApp storage best practices for particular workloads. We also discuss (a) gathering application level requirements and choosing the right backend storage for different workloads, (b) setting up the right mount options for NFS clients and determining the right network switch port requirements. We conclude with a summary of the current state of the NFSv4 standard, including implementation progress for several platforms.
