I have a 740 with ~600GB of data. it is running 5.36r2. it has 512mb of ram and is running oc-3 (155mb) atm.
periodically i see the good old
"nfs server suchandsuch not responding" on various mid-range solaris boxes.
and users complain about bad performance. general network performance is good for file transfers etc. there is a Ontap bug 12898 for 5.36r2 relating to these indications but in a TCP nfs environment. most of my solaris NFS mounts are V3 UDP. i am going to do an upgrade anyway but I was wondering if anyone else has seen this type of indication. also, see below the output of my sysstat. this goes on most of the day. it looks to me as if my filer is getting hammered. what do you guys think?
thanks
roger
