8.5 Specifying Network Paths for a NFS Server

Direct NFS Client can use up to four network paths defined in the oranfstab file for an NFS server.

Direct NFS Client performs load balancing across all specified paths. If a specified path fails, then Direct NFS Client reissues all outstanding requests over any remaining paths.

Note:

You can have only one active Direct NFS Client implementation for each instance. Using Direct NFS Client on an instance prevents the use of another Direct NFS Client implementation.
