3.1.2 MxFS-Linux Administration Guide

Other Configuration Information

This chapter provides information about the following:

• NFS clients

• Using the NLM protocol

NFS Clients

After MxFS is configured, your NFS clients can begin accessing the

exported PSFS filesystems.

Timeout Configuration

It is recommended that NFS clients have a minimum timeout value of 120

seconds. NFS failovers typically take much less time, but in a worst-case

scenario may approach 120 seconds.

Client Mounts

To access the shared data on PSFS filesystems, clients simply mount the

exported PSFS filesystems.

# mkdir /mnt/data1

# mount -t nfs -o udp 99.10.210.100:/mnt/psfs/nfsdata1

/mnt/data1
