[ILUG-BOM] problem with NFS

[Poornima Marattil]

u could try the following for tuning nfs

RPCNFSCOUNT=64 in /etc/sysconfig/nfs

Add the following  lines to /etc/sysctl.conf:
net.core.rmem_default = 262144
net.core.rmem_max = 262144

Increase the fragmented packet queue length upper and lower 
bounds

net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh = 524288
net.ipv4.ipfrag_low_thresh = 393216

regards.
