A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : pNFS Block/Volume Layout
Author(s) : D. Black, S. Fridella
Filename : draft-black-pnfs-block-02.txt
Pages : 20
Date : 2005-10-24
Parallel NFS (pNFS) extends NFSv4 to allow clients to directly access
file data on the storage used by the NFSv4 server. This ability to
bypass the server for data access can increase both performance and
parallelism, but requires additional client functionality for data
access, some of which is dependent on the class of storage used. The
main pNFS operations draft specifies storage-class-independent
extensions to NFS; this draft specifies the additional extensions
(primarily data structures) for use of pNFS with block and volume
based storage.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-black-pnfs-block-02.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
