Hey all, Bit of an odd question as I'm certain it's a fault in the windows clientside, but in case anyone here has seen this problem before....
I'm trying to transfer some large files (250GB + ) onto a raid set using NFS. When I used a Linux or Mac NFS client I can sustain a fast transfer at a very stable rate. When I use a Windows client (using the Services for Unix client) the rate is stable for a few minutes, then drops off to nothing, then rises and becomes stable for a few minutes, then drops off to nothing. This seems to be the same if I use samba (it just runs at a slower rate, ~12.5% of the total available transfer speed, and the dropouts are shorter), unfortunatley this is not fast enough for the job in mind, and is the dropouts are unacceptable in the environment the server is going into. Has anyone seen this kind of behaviour before, and if so, any idea how to stop it?
