I have an NFS buffer question,
- machine A and B are both mounting /dir from a NetApp filer.
- machine A runs an application that logs into /dir/file.log. App
logs about 1 line every 2-3 seconds.
- From machine A, the log is available "realtime". I can tail and
see the 1 line every 2-3 seconds.
- From machine B, the log will show up in chunks every 30-40
seconds. If I tail, I'll get like 20 lines every 40 seconds.
Question is who is buffering.
Is it cached for writing on the NFS client?
Is it cached on the NFS server somehow?
Thanks for the help.
