NFS cache
2007-12-25 1:57:00
I'm having a question concerning the NFS cache.
I'm using the NFS service to test the network over both 1Gb and
fast-ethernet network: the NFS client copies several times (over 10,000) too
differents small files (file1, file2) to the NFS server in file1_0, file1_1,
... file2_0, file2_1, etc.
I first perform the test on the Gb ethernet card and then on the
fast-ethernet one (both machines have 2 network attachments: ge0 and hme0).
Although these 2 files are renamed on the NFS server, I'm wondering if they
are not in the NFS server cache. As I want to test the network performances,
I want to be sure these files are copied each time and not taken from the
NFS cache. Does anybody know that ?
The NFS client runs solaris 7 and the server solaris 9.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Rgds,
Sabrina
