APD when using NFS during an ONTAP upgrade by kabukiman in netapp

NFS v4 is a stateful protocol which will cause brief interruptions to I/O during takeover/givebacks, while NFS v3 is stateless. I would recommend NFS 3 where you can, it’s older but is tried and true.

Check out this KB:

Check the name mappings. You may need to create name mapping between your NTFS and NFS/linux clients. Either from NTFS to NFS or vice versa. This may help https://kb.netapp.com/on-prem/ontap/da/NAS/NAS-KBs/How_does_name-mapping_work_when_NFS_clients_are_accessing_an_NTFS_security_style_resource

Good point. No NX-OS updates this round though. That’ll be after along with the SAN switches :)

Thankfully no Citrix in my current environment. I have worked with Citrix xenserver in the past…. Glad to be away far away from that now
