When will the code be available?

The code is currently available on our downloads page.

How is the code released?

The code drops are currently delivered via a tarball which includes the collection of all of the modified files. The Nevada build that these files are based on will always be documented in the release notes.

Currently we are exploring how to make the code available via an externally accessible Mercurial repository. Stay tuned for more information on this.

How do I get NFSv4.1/pNFS?

How do I configure NFSv4.1/pNFS?

Check out the How to Setup and Use pNFS page.

What should I do if I find a bug?

Capture as much information as possible and send email to the nfsv41 dash discuss at opensolaris dot org alias. Information that is useful for us to determine the root cause of a problem is:

1. A summary of the problem and what you were doing when you saw the problem. Note: It is good to give as much information as possible here. This will allow us to recreate the problem.
2. A summary of your configuration (i.e. I have x data servers running on x machines…).
3. What bits do you have installed (i.e. %cat /etc/motd on all machines)?
4. If the problem is a panic, provide us the stack trace and access to the core file.

What should I do if I want to contribute code?

Code will be accepted or rejected from community members following the existing OpenSolaris process. The idea is that external contributors will have an internal pNFS project sponsor who is responsible for taking the changes from the external contributor and integrating them into the pNFS project gate. The pNFS project sponsor is also responsible for determining if a set of changes should not be taken.
