Since your the expert on unfs3 because you have it working, would you share
some technical configuration information with us?
Such as
What statements do you have in the host:server and remote:client /etc/rc.conf
to auto start them at boot time?
in client - as with any NFS, use kernel klient.
on server - just run unfsd anywhere, like /etc/rc.local
Do you really cannot use any program without rc.d script? ;)
How do you disable the kernel nfs version so it don't interfere with unfs3?
Just don't enable it in /etc/rc.conf
You may have it in kernel. i did, now i don't. both works.
What does your export file look like on both the host:server and
remote:client sides.
as described in manual of unfsd.
basics are same, details are not.
Then about unfs3 performance; how many concurrent remote:clients do you
service? Doe's access elapse time get longer as more concurrent
over 60 but not high load clients so performance doesn't matter. That's X
terminals booting over NFS.
Sometimes i do more - example is net-booting windoze PC to be able to do
some recovery OR backup large amount of data to server.
There is no practical performance difference in that settings.
BUT - do make configure, then search where fsync is called and comment it
out.
Right - not conformant, but the performance difference on writes are
enormous.
Unless you do such a stupid things like running database servers over NFS,
you don't need this conformance. Just do it.
Do you run unfs3 in a jail on both the host:server and remote:client sides?
Not now. but tried. unfs doesn't need ANY special kernel calls. It runs
just like any program using UDP/TCP communication. jail/no jail doesn't
make a difference. As with most programs.
In kernel point of view it is just a program that use TCP/IP stack and
open/read/write/readdir/etc. Nothing else.
Are there any sysctl nob settings needed to make unfs3 run in a jail?
as above.
