Troubleshooting and tuning NFS

Checking the biod daemon

The client's biod daemon is not necessary for NFS to work, but it improves performance. Make sure the following (or similar) lines are present in the client's file /etc/init.d/nfs:

   if [ -x /usr/lib/nfs/biod ]
   then
   	$TFADMIN /usr/lib/nfs/biod > /dev/console 2>&1
   fi
To enable this daemon without rebooting, log in as the network administrator and type:

/usr/lib/nfs/biod
