A) 1 filesystem, one directory exported, 10 to 15 clients writing to subdirectories simultaneously.
B) 1 filesystem, 10 to 15 directories exported, each of 10 to 15 clients mounts one of the exported directories and all clients writing simultaneously.
Thanks.

Re: NFS performance
in case (A), I don't think there would be any significant
performance difference between (A) and (B).
I would like to know what others think.

Re: NFS performance
The problem is any kind of network congestion can bring things down to a halt. I'd recommend Samba for Windows clients as its a bit more robust.
If the clients are HP-UX, the samba client runs on top of nfs so I'm not sure what benefit there is to CIFS/Samba.
I don't see either scenario providing superior performance than the other. I lean toward B and urge you to carefully tune the NFS setup, based on use.
If you can go 1000 BaseT or you can do this NFS work on a VLAN or segmented network where no windows clients can congest you, either scenario should work well.

Re: NFS performance
I will begin the search for the book on NFS for HP-UX by Dave Olker.
Server will be HP-UX ( of course). Clients will be VMS, Linux, and Digital Unix clients, writing backups to the NFS directories.

Re: NFS performance
I value that input, though I was unsure how to assign points. I hope my solution was satisfactory. Collectively for the 3 answers I thought about 7 or 8 points was about right. But should I give one answer an 8 and the other two answers 0 points? Or as I decided, split the points among the answers.
