Hi Nithya,

Should this option be documented in the table under "10.1. Configuring Volume Options" ?

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Storage/3.1/html-single/Administration_Guide/index.html#Configuring_Volume_Options

If yes, can you please share the "Allowed Values", "Default Value", and a brief description of the value. 

Thanks

From the code:

        { .key         = "nfs.rdirplus",
          .voltype     = "nfs/server",
          .option      = "nfs.rdirplus",
          .type        = GLOBAL_DOC,
          .op_version  = GD_OP_VERSION_3_7_12,
          .description = "When this option is turned off NFS falls back to "
                         "standard readdir instead of readdirp"
        },

The default value is on. Turning this off would result in more lookup and stat requests being sent from the client causing a dip in performance.

yes. It seems appropriate to add this option to the existing Volume Options list.

Nithya has provided all the required information above. I do not have anything more to add. Thanks!

Hi Soumya / Nithya,

The option is added in the table:

http://ccs-jenkins.gsslab.brq.redhat.com:8080/job/doc-Red_Hat_Gluster_Storage-3.2-Administration_Guide-branch-bz-1365476-new_option_nfs.rdirplus/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/tmp/en-US/html-single/index.html#Configuring_Volume_Options

I wanted to know if we want to tell the customer about the dip in performance, or is it better to just say that "It is not recommended to turn this option off" ?

For now, I have retained the info shared in comment 4

Content looks good to me. Maybe we can reword it to 
"Turning this off would result in more lookup and stat requests being sent from the client which may impact performance." Thoughts?

Alright, so we do want to inform the customer about the impact on performance :)

I have updated the content accordingly:

http://ccs-jenkins.gsslab.brq.redhat.com:8080/job/doc-Red_Hat_Gluster_Storage-3.2-Administration_Guide-branch-master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/tmp/en-US/html-single/index.html#Configuring_Volume_Options

The allowed options are written in defaults. need to update the section.

The allowed options are now added in the right column. Following is the updated link:

http://ccs-jenkins.gsslab.brq.redhat.com:8080/job/doc-Red_Hat_Gluster_Storage-3.2-Administration_Guide-branch-master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/tmp/en-US/html-single/index.html#Configuring_Volume_Options

Verified that the options are added in the volume section. Also verified the on and off options works successfully for nfs.rdirplus. Moving this RFE to verified.
