It works. I like it. I can cross-mount partitions with DEC and Apple
systems, no problem.
Running a common source partition on a 9332 SCSI drive, our system bogs
down seriously when we load it heavily. When this happens, we might
have four or five users on different RTs doing compiles on the same
partition, and a couple of background jobs moving files into or out of
our SCCS archive directory on a different partition of the 9332. The
batch checkin/checkout jobs sometimes seem to stop dead for twenty or
thirty seconds at a time, and take approximately forever to run. The
server is a 125 with 12 MB of memory, running eight each nfsd and biod
processes.
Can anyone offer some pointers on how to tune NFS so it has enough
system resources to do its job?
