[Lustre-discuss] NFS re-exporting lustre

Under lustre 1.6.4.3 we have to use the single threaded user space nfsd in order to not lock up our OSSs.  As you may expect, the performance is not very good.  The kernel nfsd works fine for us so far in our 1.8 testing.

Subject: [Lustre-discuss] NFS re-exporting lustre

Just wondering if anybody is successfully NFS exporting their lustre
filesystem. I'm also curious to hear about experiences doing this. I
tried this back with some of the early 1.6 releases and ended up with
the lustre nfs exports freezing after a few minutes of heavy i/o and
having to reboot the nfs server for activity to resume.
