NFSIOD(8) System Manager's Manual NFSIOD(8) NAME nfsiod -- local NFS asynchronous I/O server SYNOPSIS nfsiod [-n num_servers] DESCRIPTION The nfsiod utility is a kernel process which runs on an NFS client machine to service asynchronous I/O requests to its server. It improves perfor- mance but is not required for correct operation. This program controls the maximum number of processes that the kernel runs. The options are as follows: -n Specify how many servers are permitted to be started. A client should run enough daemons to handle its maximum level of concur- rency, typically four to six. If nfsiod detects that the running kernel does not include NFS support, it will attempt to load a loadable kernel module containing NFS code, using kldload(2). If this fails, or no NFS KLD was available, nfsiod exits with an error. EXIT STATUS The nfsiod utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. SEE ALSO nfsstat(1), kldload(2), nfssvc(2), mountd(8), nfsd(8), rpcbind(8) HISTORY The nfsiod utility first appeared in 4.4BSD. FreeBSD 8.1 September 22, 1994 NFSIOD(8)
