- Configuring NFS Buffer Size Parameters for Oracle Database
Set the values for the NFS buffer size parameters rsize and wsize to at least 32768. - Checking TCP Network Protocol Buffer for Direct NFS Client
Check your TCP network buffer size to ensure that it is adequate for the speed of your servers. - Creating an oranfstab File for Direct NFS Client
Direct NFS uses a configuration file,oranfstab
, to determine the available mount points. - Enabling and Disabling Direct NFS Client Control of NFS
By default, Direct NFS Client is installed in a disabled state with single-instance Oracle Database installations. Before enabling Direct NFS, you must configure anoranfstab
file. - Enabling Hybrid Columnar Compression on Direct NFS Client
