The +main functionality is handled by the +.B nfsd +kernel module. The user space program merely specifies what sort of sockets +the kernel service should listen on, what NFS versions it should support, and +how many kernel threads it should use. +.P +The +.B rpc.mountd +server provides an ancillary service needed to satisfy mount requests +by NFS clients. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B \-d " or " \-\-debug +enable logging of debugging messages +.TP +.B \-H " or " \-\-host hostname +specify a particular hostname (or address) that NFS requests will +be accepted on. By default, +.B rpc.nfsd +will accept NFS requests on all known network addresses. +Note that +.B lockd +(which performs file locking services for NFS) may still accept +request on all known network addresses. This may change in future +releases of the Linux Kernel. This option can be used multiple times +to listen to more than one interface. +.TP +.B \-S " or " \-\-scope scope +NFSv4.1 and later require the server to report a "scope" which is used +by the clients to detect if two connections are to the same server. +By default Linux NFSD uses the host name as the scope. +.sp +It is particularly important for high-availablity configurations to ensure +that all potential server nodes report the same server scope. +.TP +.B \-p " or " \-\-port port +specify a different port to listen on for NFS requests. By default, +.B rpc.nfsd +will listen on port 2049. +.TP +.B \-r " or " \-\-rdma +specify that NFS requests on the standard RDMA port ("nfsrdma", port +20049) should be honored. +.TP +.BI \-\-rdma= port +Listen for RDMA requests on an alternate port - may be a number or a +name listed in +.BR /etc/services . +.TP +.B \-N " or " \-\-no-nfs-version vers +This option can be used to request that +.B rpc.nfsd +does not offer certain versions of NFS. The current version of +.B rpc.nfsd +can support major NFS versions 3,4 and the minor versions 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2. +.TP +.B \-s " or " \-\-syslog +By default, +.B rpc.nfsd +logs error messages (and debug messages, if enabled) to stderr. This option makes +.B rpc.nfsd +log these messages to syslog instead. Note that errors encountered during +option processing will still be logged to stderr regardless of this option. +.TP +.B \-t " or " \-\-tcp +Instruct the kernel nfs server to open and listen on a TCP socket. This is the default. +.TP +.B \-T " or " \-\-no-tcp +Instruct the kernel nfs server not to open and listen on a TCP socket. +.TP +.B \-u " or " \-\-udp +Instruct the kernel nfs server to open and listen on a UDP socket. +.TP +.B \-U " or " \-\-no-udp +Instruct the kernel nfs server not to open and listen on a UDP socket. This is the default. +.TP +.B \-V " or " \-\-nfs-version vers +This option can be used to request that +.B rpc.nfsd +offer certain versions of NFS. The current version of +.B rpc.nfsd +can support major NFS versions 3,4 and the minor versions 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2. +.TP +.B \-L " or " \-\-lease-time seconds +Set the lease-time used for NFSv4. This corresponds to how often +clients need to confirm their state with the server. Valid range is +from 10 to 3600 seconds. +.TP +.B \-G " or " \-\-grace-time seconds +Set the grace-time used for NFSv4 and NLM (for NFSv2 and NFSv3). +New file open requests (NFSv4) and new file locks (NLM) will not be +allowed until after this time has passed to allow clients to recover state. +.TP +.I nproc +specify the number of NFS server threads. By default, eight +threads are started. However, for optimum performance several threads +should be used. The actual figure depends on the number of and the work +load created by the NFS clients, but a useful starting point is +eight threads. Effects of modifying that number can be checked using +the +.BR nfsstat (8) +program. +.P +Note that if the NFS server is already running, then the options for +specifying host, port, and protocol will be ignored. The number of +processes given will be the only option considered, and the number of +active +.B nfsd +processes will be increased or decreased to match this number. +In particular +.B rpc.nfsd 0 +will stop all threads and thus close any open connections. + +.SH CONFIGURATION FILE +Many of the options that can be set on the command line can also be +controlled through values set in the +.B [nfsd] +section of the +.I /etc/nfs.conf +configuration file. Values recognized include: +.TP +.B threads +The number of threads to start. +.TP +.B host +A host name, or comma separated list of host names, that +.I rpc.nfsd +will listen on. Use of the +.B --host +option replaces all host names listed here. +.TP +.B scope +Set the server scope. +.TP +.B grace-time +The grace time, for both NFSv4 and NLM, in seconds. +.TP +.B lease-time +The lease time for NFSv4, in seconds. +.TP +.B port +Set the port for TCP/UDP to bind to. +.TP +.B rdma +Enable RDMA port (with "on" or "yes" etc) on the standard port +("nfsrdma", port 20049). +.TP +.B rdma-port +Set an alternate RDMA port. +.TP +.B UDP +Enable (with "on" or "yes" etc) or disable ("off", "no") UDP support. +.TP +.B TCP +Enable or disable TCP support. +.TP +.B vers3 +.TP +.B vers4 +Enable or disable +.B all +NFSv4 versions. All versions are normally enabled +by default. +.TP +.B vers4.1 +.TP +.B vers4.2 +Setting these to "off" or similar will disable the selected minor +versions. Setting to "on" will enable them. The default values +are determined by the kernel, and usually minor versions default to +being enabled once the implementation is sufficiently complete. + +.SH NOTES +If the program is built with TI-RPC support, it will enable any protocol and +address family combinations that are marked visible in the +.B netconfig +database. + +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR nfsd (7), +.BR rpc.mountd (8), +.BR exports (5), +.BR exportfs (8), +.BR nfs.conf (5), +.BR rpc.rquotad (8), +.BR nfsstat (8), +.BR netconfig(5). +.SH AUTHOR +Olaf Kirch, Bill Hawes, H.
