EXPLANATIONS ON SMIT VALUES FOR MOUNTED FILES SYSTEM

ITEM: RTA000027312



Will you please give me some explanations on the attribute values               
within the MOUNTED FILES SYSTEM (NFS), for buffer size for READ,                
buffer size forWRITE, and the MINIMUM & MAXIMUM times which appear              
at the bottom of this smit screen, or at least give me a place that             
I can reference the information?

A: The attributes listed in that SMIT screen are the same as in the "Make       
   an Mounted File System" screen.  These are documented in InfoExplorer        
   article "mknfsmnt."                                                          
                                                                                
   The read and write buffer sizes refer to the amount of data that is          
   sent across the network in each NFS packet.  The "cached attributes"         
   refer to how long (min or max) the local attributes will be held             
   before synchronizing with the server.                                       
                                                                                
   The read and write buffer sizes default to 4096 bytes.  There is no          
   default value for attribute caching; the attributes are usually              
   propagated instantly.                                                        
                                                                                
---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ---------- ----------
