If the Compaq Integrated Management Log Viewer is run from
the system desktop via
Start >Programs > Compaq System Tools > Compaq
Integrated Management Log Viewer and the save log file is
utilized, the IML will not reopen the file created and an error is
displayed. The error displays:

Services for UNIX (SFU)
NFS Performance
NFS performance will increase when changing from the default
of synchronous writes to asynchronous writes.
To change from synchronous to asynchronous writes (and vise
versa), open the Web UI and click Shares, Sharing Protocols,
choose the NFS Protocol, and click Properties. Click the NFS
Async/Sync Setting button to toggle between asynchronous and
synchronous writes.
Note: After toggling between synchronous and asynchronous writes
(and vise versa), the NFS server service must be restarted. Inform all
users before restarting the service.
Keep the following in mind when toggling between synchronous
and asynchronous writes.
1. When the caching setting for Services for UNIX is set to
asynchronous writes (caching on), NFS clients may
incorrectly assume that all the writes were safely committed
to stable storage; the writes were only in the Server for NFS
cache.
