Abstract

This document defines the requirements that individual Parallel NFS(pNFS) layout types need to meet in order to work within the pNFSframework as defined in RFC 5661. In so doing, this document aims toclearly distinguish between requirements for pNFS as a whole andthose specifically directed to the pNFS file layout. The lack of aclear separation between the two sets of requirements has beentroublesome for those specifying and evaluating new layout types. Inthis regard, this document updates RFC 5661.
