I have an NFS server running on the Raspberry Pi (with RPi OS), and I can't get my OpenBSD laptop to mount it.
OpenBSD will mount my Samba server in the Thunar file manager, but I'd rather mount that share in the terminal (or via fstab), and I don't think there's a way to do that.
Not even bad the latency (this is just about latency, not overall bandwidth which reaches the full 4.9Gbit via 2x 2.5Gbit links).
Taken inside a Debian VM running on a Proxmox node connected to the storage:
GMKTec G9 NAS
2x 2.5Gbit
NFS 4.2 (with pNFS)
2x WD Back SN7100 NVMe
Mirror mode ZFS
While this are already pretty awesome latencies, let's see how it performs with SPDK and NVMe-oF (TCP).
""We recently ran across a strange higgs-bugson that manifested itself in a critical system […] A higgs-bugson is a bug that is reported in practice but difficult to reproduce, […]
The Linux kernel does not actually implement this cache as suggested by the RFC, so I wrote a kernel patch to add this functionality and mailed it off upstream. I also learned that the FreeBSD kernel actually already implements this, so this is new-to-Linux but not new-to-NFS.
[…]
Both of these patches are now upstream and will be available in Linux 6.16.""

Hi,
I wanna know something
On old #VideoGames , 30 #FPS was #largely #enough even with #racing ones, I mean, try #NFS #Carbon or #CallOfDuty #Modern #Warfare (the #classic one), but on #modern video games, if you have 30 FPS, the game feels too #laggy and it's like playing in 1/2 of the actual #speed , this applies to most #games , racing or others

Video: Wie du deinen eigenen NFS-Server einrichtest
In meinem Video führe ich dich Schritt für Schritt durch die Einrichtung eines NFS-Servers unter Linux. Wir beginnen mit der Installation der erforderlichen Pakete und gehen dann weiter zur Erstellung einer Freigabe.

OK, since folks are asking #FreeBSD #metrics questions, here's mine. Say I have a fleet of 15-20 #NFS servers, with a typical drive complement of 60 drives (multipathed, so there are 120 da* devices, and some have twice that). I have CAM_IOSCHED enabled so I have latency histogram data for every drive (as unlabeled comma-separated integers, sigh). Is there anything that will actually collect and visualize this data usefully (without requiring a full-time metrics developer, which I am not).

@neil well, with #rsync it does work, tho your issues may be caused by lockfiles and conflicting read/writes.

@hl @xdydx #FreeBSD has only support for SMBv1, which you should absolutely avoid for security reasons, although you can probably configure #samba to still allow it ... but ... don't. Nowadays I'd prefer to say FreeBSD does not support mounting SMB shares.
There are some ports available implementing "modern" SMB (v2/v3) on top of #fuse, which might be an option, but in my experience, they're not perfectly reliable and performance isn't the greatest either.
If ever possible, work on the server side and see whether you can share via #NFS instead. Either #NFSv3 (which is only "secure" as long as your network is perfectly secure and you control all participating machines, but at least it doesn't pretend to do anything else), or #NFSv4 with #kerberos security.
