Hey Spike,

We need to use NFS v4 with Kerberos for security reasons.

This reminds me why we've kept running our file servers on Linux VMs - 
everything just worked with SSD and at a surprising scale.  Now (if we go 
ahead) we've got a lot of work to do affecting all Linux systems, all to just 
add a NAS.


In this research I've found that other people share my thoughts about NAS 
vendors supporting Linux better.  Life really would be easier for many of us  
if a NAS vendor just implemented the SSSD ID mapping algorithm. It's open 
source, there's nothing to stop them using it along with all the other FOSS 
they use!


FYI The only reason we're considering all this is an internal customer 
desperately wants to have a single "share" for windows and Linux larger than 
the 64TiB limit on LUNs our hypervisor dictates.  We investigated other hacks 
to work around this but all would have increased data risk significantly. (I 
didn't mention this before as I wanted this conversation to stay on this topic 
and not stray to alternate solutions)


Thanks,
Ed
