Hi All,
I'm wondering if anyone out there has experience with running NFS with
filers over long distances - of the order of 10s of KM.
I'm particularly interested to find out experiences when bandwidth was and
wasn't an issue. For example, running at 34Mbs/155Mbs against running over
GigE. Was tweaking the NFS request size required? Was TCP used and if so
was it because pkt loss was impacting NFS performance? Did latency become
an issue?
Thanks,
GB
