Feature Request: RDMA Support

[mohankchandrashekar]

Team,

We have recently implemented TrueNAS Scale R20 system with RDMA. The middleware GUI will need an feature addition to enable RDMA port in NFS Server configuration page where a check box to enable RDMA and input the port number (default 20049). Upon click save, the middleware will need to regenerate /etc/nfs.conf with RPCNFSDOPTS updated as follows:

middleware/src/middlewared/middlewared/etc_files/default/nfs-kernel-server.mako

From:
# Options for rpc.nfsd.
RPCNFSDOPTS="${' '.join(nfsd_opts)}"
To:
# Options for rpc.nfsd.
RPCNFSDOPTS=" --rdma=20049 ${' '.join(nfsd_opts)}"

Currently this is a manual process where the appliance is rebooted, an admin has to login as admin, su root and run "echo rdma 20049 >
/proc/fs/nfsd/portlist". Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Mohan

Sounds like you want to raise a feature request (which you can do via the Report a Bug link at the top of the site... just set the type to feature request once you're there in Jira)

Cron tasks can run as root... a cron task or startup/postinit script could do that automatically...
