• NFSv4 is a network file system protocol that supports security, performance, and scalability features. NFSv4 uses ID mapping to ensure that the permissions of files and directories are consistent across different NFSv4 servers and clients1
• ID mapping is the process of translating the user and group identifiers (UIDs and GIDs) of the local system to the user and group names (user@domain and group@domain) of the remote system, and vice versa. ID mapping is done by the idmapd service, which uses the /etc/idmapd.conf file to determine the domain name of the system2
• ID mapping requires that the NFSv4 server and client have the same domain name configured in the /etc/idmapd.conf file. If the domain names do not match, the idmapd service cannot map the UIDs and GIDs to the user and group names, and the permissions of the files and directories will be shown as nobody:nobody, which is the default anonymous user3
• Therefore, if a customer enabled NFSv4.0 on an SVM and changed the client mount from NFSv3 to NFSv4, and found that the directory owner was changed from root to nobody, the most likely cause is that the ID mapping domains do not match between the client and server. The customer should check and correct the /etc/idmapd.conf file on both systems, and restart the idmapd service and remount the NFSv4 share4

The maxdirsize is the maximum size of a directory in a FlexVol or FlexGroup volume. It is determined by the number of inodes allocated to the directory. If the directory contains more files than the maxdirsize can accommodate, then the ONTAP software will return an out of space error message to the host, even if the volume has enough free space. This can happen when a FlexGroup volume has a flat directory structure with millions of files, as the maxdirsize is not automatically adjusted for FlexGroup volumes12. References: 1: FlexGroup volumes: Frequentlyasked questions | NetApp Documentation 2: How to increase the maxdirsize of a FlexVol volume - NetApp Knowledge Base

 The two throughput elements that are controlled by host applications are operation size and concurrency. Operation size refers to the amount of data that is transferred in a single I/O request, and concurrency refers to the number of I/O requests that are issued simultaneously. Both of these factors affect the throughput of a host application, as they determine how much data can be sent or received within a given time period. Larger operation sizes and higher concurrency can increase the throughput, but they may also increase the latency and resource consumption12. References: 1: NetApp Performance Analysis on Data ONTAP - Chapter 3: Host-Side Performance 2: NetApp Performance Analysis on Data ONTAP - Chapter 4: Storage System Performance
