Hi All, I've been asked to setup a 3d renderfarm at our office , at the start it will contain about 8 nodes but it should be build at growth. now the setup i had in mind is as following: All the data is already stored on a StorNext SAN filesystem (quantum ) this should be mounted on a centos server trough fiber optics , which in its turn shares the FS over NFS to all the rendernodes (also centos). Now we've estimated that the average file send to each node will be about 90MB , so that's what i like the average connection to be, i know that gigabit ethernet should be able to that (testing with iperf confirms that) but testing the speed to already existing nfs shares gives me a 55MB max. as i'm not familiar with network shares performance tweaking is was wondering if anybody here did and could give me some info on this? Also i thought on giving all the nodes 2x1Gb-eth ports and putting those in a BOND, will do this any good or do i have to take a look a the nfs server side first? thanks, Wessel
