<header>Asynchronous writes</header>

"Yes" - Writes to the server are done asynchronously.
|
|
When your NFS client sends a write request to an NFS
|
|
server, the server returns a positive response to your client
|
|
before writing any data to its disk. Your client can then send
|
|
another write request without waiting for the server to
|
|
complete the previous write.
|
|
Write performance is better with asynchronous writes than
|
|
with synchronous writes. However, if the server crashes
|
|
after sending the positive response to the client but before
|
|
writing the data to disk, the data is lost, and the client is not
|
|
notified.
|
|
<p>
|
|
"No" - Writes to the server are done synchronously. When
|
|
your NFS client sends a write request to an NFS server, the
|
|
server writes the data to its disk before returning a positive
|
|
response to your client. Your client must wait until the server
|
|
writes the data to disk before it can send another write
|
|
request.
|
|
Write performance is not as good with synchronous writes
|
|
as with asynchronous writes.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default is "No".
