NFS setup for Oracle install

• On the client side:

mkdir /test1
Edit the /etc/vfstab file and add the following line to mount the file system as NFS

10.129.195.224:/export/test1    -       /test1  nfs     -       yes     rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,proto=tcp,noac,forcedirectio,vers=3,suid

or
zfssaIp:/fs    -    /clientfs    nfs    -    yes    {mount options}

Refer to following metalink doc for mount option info
Mount Options for Oracle files when used with NFS on NAS devices [ID 359515.1]

You can unmount the filesystem with the following command
umount /test1

• On the storage side:

Create a storage pool (Configuration ->Storage).
Create a new project (Shares->Project)
Create a FS under that project (Shares->Shares)

• Issue resolution:

• Direct NFS: Failed to set socket buffer size.wtmax=[1048576] rtmax=[1048576], errno=-1

You have to increase tcp_buf_size. Kindly set the value of the tcp buffer to a value higher than wtmax and rtmax specified above. Setting to the same value does not resolve the issue.

You can issue the following commands to set and display the values:

# /usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_max_buf 1056768
# /usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_xmit_hiwat 1056768
#  /usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_recv_hiwat 1056768
#
# /usr/sbin/ndd /dev/tcp tcp_max_buf
1056768
# /usr/sbin/ndd /dev/tcp tcp_xmit_hiwat
1056768
# /usr/sbin/ndd /dev/tcp tcp_recv_hiwat
1056768
