[RFC PATCH v2 13/13] pnfs/NFSv4.1: Add multipath capabilities to pNFS flexfiles servers over NFSv3

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

 



This adds multipathing to pNFS over NFSv3 as described in the flexfiles
draft spec.
Ideally, we'd like to do the same for pNFS files, but the NFSv4.1 protocol
requires a call to EXCHANGE_ID in order to test that the connection can do
session trunking.
