Greetings
Another problem :-((
This one is a bit more interesting. I'm running a diskless Epia system
with all the filesystems NFS mounted on a server. I've just twigged that
the backend on the Epia system crashes when the file it is recorded gets
to 2048M. I'd seen this before but not associated it with anything in
particular as I had not at that time "stabilised" my system.
I assume its something to do with the way I have NFS set up - I'm not
running quotas - but I can't see what values to tweak and where to remove
this limit.
Samba had a well known limit of 2G a couple of versions back but I can't
see that that has any bearing at all on NFS!! ulimit doesn't have a factor
for file size and any googling I do for an answer assumes I'm running
quota.
Hmmm - stumped :-(
I've nailed it down to the NFS mounts defaulting to version 2 which has
the 2G limit due to a cockup in my kernel config.
However, thats made me think that I should have something other than the
defaults in the client fstab - any suggestions for tuning NFS for large
video files?
This is the recommended option per the Myth docs:
rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,intr,nfsvers=3
I'm running Gentoo at both ends and I'm getting the error "nfs warning:
mount version older than kernel" but its running version 3 OK according to
/proc/mounts so what is the version difference its complaining about?
I get that as well, never figured out why, but it works so....
