Good to know.

Please update us during the moving of mailboxes.

I'm also interested into know if you have find benefit from switch to NFSv4 from NFSv3 (load on storage, cache benefits or others).

Thanks

just a quick update:

no issues with NFSv4.0 (load is slowly growing, currently ~7k mailboxes)

instead, bad news from delegation front, we enabled it for a couple of
days but we ran in ugly issues: processes went in "uninterruptible
sleep" state, load average gets huge, reboot was the only escape :-(

Have you already try to run NFSv4?
it's in place on a (very) small sample of mailboxes in dbox format, no issues
up to now (Debian Wheezy mainline kernel)

Good to know, let me know what will be when the load will grow.

When we switch to netapp and nfsv4 we had many problems (lock problems
and instability) and we had to go immediately to NFSv3. I don't know if
was a netapp problem or nfs client (Debian with 2.6 kernel), now we are
using Centos 6 as NFS client and we should re-try to mount mailbox as nfsv4.

when you've had problems, the "delegation feature" was active on Netapp
filers? (AFAIK it is disabled by default)

Never enabled "delegation feature" on my netapp.

Probably my issue was on client side. I had to switch immediately to NFSv3
without being able to investigate the problem.

Ciao
