== NAME
nfsdctl - control program for the Linux kernel NFS server
== SYNOPSIS
*nfsdctl* [ _OPTION_ ] COMMAND ...
== DESCRIPTION
nfsdctl is a control and query program for the in-kernel NFS server. There are several
subcommands (documented below) that allow the admin to configure or query different
aspects of the NFS server.
To get information about different subcommand usage, pass the subcommand the
--help parameter. For example:
nfsdctl listener --help
== OPTIONS
*-d, --debug*::
Enable debug logging
*-h, --help*::
Print program help text
*-s, --syslog*::
Log to syslog instead of to stderr (the default)
*-V, --version*::
Print program version
== SUBCOMMANDS
Each subcommand can also accept its own set of options and arguments. The
--help option is standard for all subcommands:
*autostart*::
Start the server using the settings in the [nfsd] section of /etc/nfs.conf.
This subcommand takes no arguments. Note that if a "threads=" value is not set in
nfs.conf, 16 server threads will be brought online.
*listener*::
Get/set the listening sockets for the server. Run this without arguments to
get a list of the sockets on which the server is currently listening. To add
or remove sockets, pass it whitespace-separated strings in the format:
{ +|- }{ protocol }:{ address }:{ port }
The fields are:
+ to add a listener, - to remove one
protocol: protocol name (e.g. tcp, udp, rdma)
address: hostname or address
port: port number or service name
All fields are required, except for the address. If address is an empty string,
then the listeners will be opened for INADDR_ANY and IN6ADDR_ANY_INIT for ipv6
(if enabled). The address can be either a hostname or an IP address. IPv4
addresses must be in dotted-quad form. IPv6 addresses should be in standard
colon separated form, and must be enclosed in square brackets.
*nlm*::
Get information about NLM (lockd) settings in the current net namespace. This
subcommand takes no arguments.
*status*::
Get information about RPCs currently executing in the server. This subcommand
takes no arguments.
*threads*::
Get/set the number of running nfsd threads in each pool. Pass a list of
integers to change the currently active number of threads. Passing it a
value of 0 will shut down the NFS server. Run this without arguments to
get the current number of running threads in each pool.
*version*::
Get/set the enabled NFS versions for the server. Run without arguments to
get a list of supported versions and whether they are currently enabled or
disabled. To enable or disable a version, pass it a string in the format:
{ +|- }{ MAJOR }{.{ MINOR }}
The fields are:
+ to enable a version, - to disable
MAJOR: the major version integer value
MINOR: the minor version integer value
The minorversion field is optional. If not given, it will disable or enable
all minorversions for that major version.
Note that versions can only be set when there are no nfsd threads running.
*pool-mode*::
Get/set the host's pool mode. This will cause the server to start threads
that are pinned to either the CPU or the NUMA node. This can only be set
when there are no nfsd threads running.
The available options are:
global: single large pool
percpu: pool per CPU
pernode: pool per NUMA node
auto: choose a mode based on host configuration
== EXAMPLES
Start the server with the settings in nfs.conf:
nfsdctl autostart
Get a list of current listening sockets:
nfsdctl listener
Show the supported and enabled NFS versions:
nfsdctl version
Add TCP listener on all addresses (both v4 and v6), port 2049:
nfsdctl listener +tcp::2049
Add RDMA listener on 1.2.3.4 port 20049:
nfsdctl listener +rdma:1.2.3.4:20049
Add same listener on IPv6 address f00::ba4 port 20050:
nfsdctl listener +rdma:[f00::ba4]:20050
Enable NFS version 3, disable v4.0:
nfsdctl version +3 -4.0
Change the number of running threads in first pool to 256:
nfsdctl threads 256
Set the pool-mode to "pernode":
nfsdctl pool-mode pernode
== NOTES
nfsdctl is intended to supersede rpc.nfsd(8), which controls the nfs server
using the files under /proc/fs/nfsd. nfsdctl instead uses a netlink(7)
interface to achieve the same goals.
Most of the commands that query the NFS server can be run as an unprivileged
user, but configuring the server typically requires an account with elevated
privileges.
