Introduction
This is a test about interoperablity. The test used is conectathon 2004. Hardware configurations are:
- For Linux machines: 2x Intel Xeon machines, 1GByte ram and 2x 64 bit RISC machines
- For non-Linux machines: 2x CPUs + 1GByte RAM
Connectathon test results
Linux client
| Machines | IA32 Client | x86_64 Client | PPC64 Client |
| non-Linux 32 bits server | OK* | OK* | OK* |
| non-Linux 64 bits server | OK* | OK* | OK* |
* Connectathon 2Gb file creation special test creation failed because non-Linux system is not able to manage such files
Performance tests (Iozone)
Performance comparison between non-Linux and Linux NFSv4 servers
For each test, comparison between two cases:
- Case 1: linux NFS client and non-Linux server
- Case 2: linux NFS client and Linux server
