Lattus A10 Access Node Installation Guide
Here is an example
fstab
entry for a Linux NFS client that includes the
sync
mount option:
mynas.mycompany.com:/stornext/snfs1 /nfs/stornext/snfs1/
data1 nfs tcp,vers=3, wsize=1048576,rsize=1048576,sync 0 0
Here is an example
vfstab
entry for a Solaris NFS client that includes
the
forcedirectio
mount option:
mynas.mycompany.com:/stornext/snfs1 - /nfs/stornext/snfs1/
data1 nfs 0 yes
proto=tcp,vers=3,wsize=1048576,rsize=1048576,forcedirectio
Note:
Quantum recommends that you DO NOT use NFS clients
running RHEL5 or earlier, SLES9 or earlier, and Solaris-9 or
earlier. Also, if NFS is used with RHEL4, RHEL5, or SLES9 clients,
the NFS
sync
mount option should not be used.
Configuring Windows CIFS Clients
Windows clients running Windows 7 or Windows 2008 R2 or newer and
having fast (10GbE) connectivity should make the following registry
adjustment for best performance:
In the registry, under
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\
Parameters
create a DWORD named
DisableLargeMtu
, set the value to 0, and then
restart the computer.
