Unfortunately I don't have any good info on Notes with NFS but we're about to publish a tech report detailing a config that works fine with NT. I'd be happy to send you a draft version if you need it within the next week or so. We've validated the NT based Notes stuff via NotesBench and the report can be viewed at http://www.netapp.com/technology/level3/notesbench.html or at www.notesbench.org.

Hi. I would like to know if anyone has had any experience with NetApp filers and Lotus Notes. Here is our situation:
We have an F630 that has 2 LN server attached to it (among other things), running across Fast Etherchannel. One of the LN servers is on WinNT and the other is on AIX. The AIX box is a RS/6000 H50 with a single CPU, and 512MB RAM. The NT box is a single CPU netfinity with 512MB RAM, running at 400mhz. The Filer has 512MB onboard, running DoT 5.1D12. LN is v. 4.6.2. We have 2 networks on each server, a public network that goes to the internet, and a private network (a 10. ) that goes to the filer.
The problem we had at first was with LN itself not liking UNC names. For this problem I installed PCNFSD, and ran it that way for a while. Now we are experiencing corruption at random times. I figure it is probably the connectionless nature of NFS. Bah. Anyone have any better ideas? BTW: client doesn't want to do directory links, it has to run as a service, and it has to run as system.
Next problem: We installed Domino on an RS6K adn it ran horribly. I moved it over to local disk, and it ran great. Hmmmmm....
Here is the mount info for the rs6k from /etc/filesystems (commented out for now since we went to local disk:
- /lnmobem01: * dev = "/vol/vol0/lnmobem01" * vfs = nfs * nodename = efiler01 * mount = true * options
=bg,hard,intr,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,vers=2,proto=udp account = true
Anyone have any ideas as to why this would act slow when opening a DB? it takes about 1.5 min to open log.nsf, when it should take about .5 sec.
Thanks,
Paul
