The IESG has received a request from the Network File System Version 4 WG (nfsv4) to consider the following document: - 'Multiple NFSv4 Domain Namespace Deployment Guidelines' <draft-ietf-nfsv4-multi-domain-fs-reqs-08.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-07-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document discusses issues relevant to the deployment of the NFSv4 protocols in situations allowing for the construction of an NFSv4 file namespace supporting the use of multiple NFSv4 domains and utilizing multi-domain capable file systems. Also described are constraints on name resolution and security services appropriate to the administration of such a system. Such a namespace is a suitable way to enable a Federated File System supporting the use of multiple NFSv4 domains. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nfsv4-multi-domain-fs-reqs/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nfsv4-multi-domain-fs-reqs/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
