Advanced Settings for NFS

If you are using NetApp for storage and have NFS datastore, these are NetApp's recommended settings:

NFS.MaxVolumes               64
NFS.HearbeatFrequency     12
NFS.HeartbeatMaxFailures  10
NFS.HeartbeatTimeout           5


Net.TCPIPHeapSize             30
Net.TCPIPHeapMax           120

We have standardized on this and it has worked very well for us.

Hint: If you install VSC, it will recommend and set these for you.

A couple of these settings require a server reboot.
