38 CONFIGURING THE HP EFS WAN ACCELERATOR
Enabling the
NFS-
Application
Streamlining
You enable NFS-application streamlining in the Optimization Service - Protocol: NFS
page. NFS-application streamlining provides latency optimization improvements for
NFS operations primarily by prefetching data, storing it on the client HP EFS WAN
Accelerator for a short amount of time, and using it to respond to client requests.
You enable NFS-application streamlining where NFS performance over the WAN is
impacted by a high latency environment.
NFS file system objects have owners and permissions and NFS-application
streamlining conforms to the file system permissions model by enforcing file server
and volume policies. You must ensure that the policy is set correctly to Read-Only or
Global Read-Write as appropriate. Setting the policy to Read-Only on a non-read-only
file system results in Read-Only file system (ROFS) errors.
To enable the NFS
optimizer
