The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Remote Direct Memory Access Transport for Remote Procedure Call ' <draft-ietf-nfsv4-rpcrdma-09.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Network File System Version 4 Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Lars Eggert and Magnus Westerlund. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nfsv4-rpcrdma-09.txt Technical Summary This documents specifies a protocol for ONC RPC operation over RDMA transports (such as RDDP). The RPC/RDMA protocol supports RDMA as a new transport for ONC RPC. The RDMA transport binding conveys the benefits of efficient, bulk data transport over high speed networks, while providing for minimal change to RPC applications and with no required revision of the application RPC protocol (such as NFS), or the RPC protocol itself. Working Group Summary There is consensus in the WG to publish this documents. Protocol Quality In support of this protocol definition, a variety of prototyping efforts have occurred in both Linux and OpenSolaris operating environments. At this point, there exist interoperable NFS client and server implementations for both Linux and OpenSolaris.
