I am migrating my NFS file server from RHEL3 to RHEL5 and moving up to
NFS v4 where i can. Once question I still have is what is the maximum
rsize and wsize i can set for V4 automount? The file
include/linux/nfsd/const.h says teh maximum is 32*1024 (32K) but some
google postings claim that does not apply to V4; I've tried v4
automounts with values up to 1048576 and none of the machine have
complained.
A part of the new server's duties will be to accept the RMAN (oracle)
backups so speed is important. I am using a dedicated gigabit switch
with jumbo frames (9000 bytes) and I have tuned the TCP for the
"private" interfaces on all the connected interfaces. These is the
only parameter I am not sure what I can get away with. I have it set
to 32768 for the current v3 setup.
