Introduction

The VAST NFS package provides a modified version of the Linux NFS client and server kernel code stacks designed to be built for a large range of kernel versions, with support for additional stack features.

It contains backported upstream NFS stack code from Linux v6.6.x LTS kernel branch. This allows older kernels to receive the full functionality of newer NFS stack code. See kernels support. The package applies also to older kernels too but with less functionality (legacy VAST NFS).

Features

• NFS stack improvements and fixes
• Multipath support for NFSv3
• Multipath support for NFSv4.1 (not for legacy kernels)
• Nvidia GDS integration
