NFSD(8)             UNIX Programmer's Manual              NFSD(8)



NAME
     nfsd, biod - NFS daemons

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/nfsd [nservers]

     /etc/biod [nservers]

DESCRIPTION
     _N_f_s_d starts the _N_F_S(4) server daemons that handle client
     filesystem requests.  _N_s_e_r_v_e_r_s is the number of file system
     request daemons to start.  This number should be based on
     the load expected on this server.  Four seems to be a good
     number.

     _B_i_o_d starts _n_s_e_r_v_e_r_s asynchronous block I/O daemons.  This
     command is used on a NFS client to buffer cache handle
     read-ahead and write-behind.  The magic number for _n_s_e_r_v_e_r_s
     in here is also four.
