A 6 × F800 node Isilon cluster has one subnet with two IP pools with LACP aggregated 10GigE interfaces from
all the nodes in the ‘Data-Zone’ Access Zone. The ‘NFS-Pool’ with dynamic IP Allocation schema and ‘SMBPool’
with static IP Allocation schema are being used.
All the Linux clients are accessing Isilon exports using NFSv3 via the ‘NFS_Pool’. All the Windows clients are
accessing Isilon shares using SMBv3 via the ‘SMB_Pool’.
While deploying Isilon, the customer reserves the whole network subnet for Isilon. The customer is facing
performance issues with a new workload that is accessing the Isilon via Kerberized NFSv4.
What is recommended when creating a new IP pool for NFSv4 clients?
You meet with the IT Director of a large single site campus. The IT department has recently taken over Physical Security from the facilities department and plans a complete overhaul of the surveillance solution.
