Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Interesting - I've never tried it...
Let me know how it works!

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
 
 
New What?
Telling you about webfacing with linux/tomcat wasn't enough? :0)

New Do *NOT* use SMB. Use NFS.
Mounting an NFS export of an IFS directory on an iSeries is *WAYYYYY* more stable than mounting the same iSeries directory as an SMB share. And performance is up, too.

New Lemme ask...
Did you try CIFS?

Or Samba on the iSeries configured to serve CIFS?

I know the answer in any case. I wonder if the iSeries does NFSv4? If it does there are MANY things to benefit from.

New if you put a linux partition on iSeries
it certainly could do NFSv4
thanx,

New Not what I was asking. And you know that.
I was just wondering if the iSeries OS supported NFSv4.

I KNOW LINUX DOES. Especially with a Kernel after 2.6.19, but even better with 2.6.20.

This works very nicely:
/nfs/data               192.168.1.*(rw,fsid=0,no_root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)\n/nfs/data/stor          192.168.1.*(rw,wdelay,nohide,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check)\n/nfs/data/music         192.168.1.*(rw,wdelay,nohide,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check)


And damn its as fast as line speed will allow, except that GigE on Linux really does require TOE NICs, or TCP Offload NICs.

New I did try CIFS.
Samba on the iSeries I did not try. AFAIK, v4 is only supported in AIX and Z/OS, but that could be wrong.

         Interesting - I've never tried it... - (imric) - (6)
             What? - (mmoffitt)
             Do *NOT* use SMB. Use NFS. - (mmoffitt) - (4)
                 Lemme ask... - (folkert) - (3)
                     if you put a linux partition on iSeries - (boxley) - (1)
                         Not what I was asking. And you know that. - (folkert)
                     I did try CIFS. - (mmoffitt)
         I would think it comes down to the server implementation. - (static) - (4)
             No, no, you're doing fine. ;0) - (mmoffitt) - (3)
                 That is due to CIFS vs SMB. - (folkert) - (1)
                     I'm sure it will. - (mmoffitt)
                 Ah... that I don't know. - (static)
