Client tuning
Subsystems (2)
Hello,
I need some help fine tuning some NFS clients.
The server is a blackbox (an EMC Celerra which we don't administer, we can't touch it, we can only give some hints and pray) the clients are Linux boxes with kernel >= 2.4.18.
This system will be used, exclusivelly, as a webmail system with maildir format "mailboxes". That means lots (ithousands to millions) of small iles (<=30Kb) and tons of accesses to that same files. Access will be made via an IMAP server, a POP server and a SMTP server.
I have the option of choosing between NFSv2/v3 and TCP/UDP and the freedom to fully configure/reconfigure the client boxes. Any thoughs on what I might tweak and look for? Any experiences on this?
TIA.
