Split NFS4 share on multiple servers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello NFS team,

On my network I share my users' home directories from a kerberized NFS4 server.

I would like to split this shared filesystem tree on 3 servers to
reduce server loading and increase storage capacity. I don't want file
replication, just distribution.

On this link :

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-generic-nfs-mount/

I can read that "NFS version 4 provides a pseudo-tree mechanism that
enables a single mount of all NFSv4 exported entries"

I can't find documentation of this feature. Is it works on multiple
servers ? Is this possible to mount multiple NFS4 shares on a same
mount point without using a special file system like Unionfs or
Glusterfs ?

What is the preferred way of network administrators to distribute
their users' home directories through NFS4 ?

Thanks,
Baptiste.
