NFS performance troubleshooting
- by aix
I am troubleshooting NFS performance issues on Linux, and I'm looking at the following nfsiostat output:
host:/path mounted on /path:
op/s rpc bklog
96.75 0.01
read: ops/s kB/s kB/op retrans avg RTT (ms) avg exe (ms)
86.561 1408.294 16.269 0 (0.0%) 34.595 89.688
write: ops/s kB/s kB/op retrans avg RTT (ms) avg exe (ms)
10.113 326.282 32.265 0 (0.0%) 19.688 72446.246
What exactly is the meaning of avg RTT (ms) and avg exe (ms)?
avg exe for writes is 72 seconds(!) -- would you say this is abnormal and, if so, how do I go about troubleshooting this further?
I'm using NFS over TCP. Both the client and the server are on the same GigE LAN.
