Since I have started using vmware ESX as a hosting platform for zope,<br>
I've been mostly happy. However, I am wondering if I should have any<br>
concerns with storing the zodb on nfs. All our file systems on ESX are<br>
nfs mounted and lately we have had some interesting issues with the LAN<br>
that nfs runs on. So I'm am wondering if I should be concerned about<br>
storing the zodb on nfs mounted filesystems.<br>
