The section suggests setting LOCKD_TCPPORT and LOCKD_UDPPORT in /etc/sysconfig/nfs to specify the ports used by the nlockmgr service.

This doesn't seem to work for me, as mentioned in /etc/sysconfig/nfs itself I had to set the parameters in /etc/modprobe.d/lockd.conf instead. Should the documentation be updated to reflect this?

Hi Steve,

Could you please have a look at section 8.7. NFS Server Configuration and let me know what we should change based on the customer's feedback?

Thank you very much.

Yeap that has been changed when we moved to the upstream systemd services.

/etc/sysconfig/nfs now states:
#
#
# To set lockd kernel module parameters please see
#  /etc/modprobe.d/lockd.conf
#

and /etc/modprobe.d/lockd.conf

#
# Set the NFS lock manager grace period. n is measured in seconds. 
#options lockd nlm_grace_period=90
#
# Set the TCP port that the NFS lock manager should use. 
# port must be a valid TCP port value (1-65535).
#options lockd nlm_tcpport
#
# Set the UDP port that the NFS lock manager should use.
# port must be a valid UDP port value (1-65535).
#options lockd nlm_udpport
#
# Set the maximum number of outstanding connections 
#options lockd nlm_max_connections=1024
#
# Set the default time value for the NFS lock manager
# in seconds. Default is 10 secs (min 3 max 20)
#options lockd nlm_timeout=10
#
# Choose whether to record the caller_name or IP address
# this peer in the local rpc.statd's database.
#options lockd nsm_use_hostnames=0
