> Abstract:
>    Parallel NFS (pNFS) extends Network File System version 4 (NFSv4) to
>    enable direct client access to file data on storage, bypassing the
>    NFSv4 server.  This can increase both performance and parallelism,
>    but requires additional client functionality, some of which depends
>    upon the type of storage used.  The pNFS specification for block
>    storage (RFC 5663) describes how clients can identify the volumes
>    used for pNFS, but this mechanism requires communication with the
>    NFSv4 server.  This document updates RFC 5663 to add a mechanism that
>    enables identification of block storage devices used by pNFS file
>    systems without communicating with the server.  This enables clients
>    to control access to pNFS block devices when the client initially
>    boots, as opposed to waiting until the client can communicate with
>    the NFSv4 server.
