Hi David,
There is no explicit protection for disk access to prevent i/o
conflicts between different applications (and nothing specific to NFS
or other networked drives), but disk access is relatively rare and
reasonably well encapsulated.
So, yes there are "potential problems", though I don't think it would
be related to NFS. Unless you have to instances of Athena trying to
write to the same project file, I wouldn't expect too many problems,
and don't see them myself (on NFS or SMB mounted disks).
Are you seeing problems?

Bruce,
Is Athena NFS safe? i.e. If you have a user logged in on two different computers using a single NFS mounted home directory, are there any potential problems or conflicts when running Athena on both computers?
Thanks!
David. _______________________________________________ Ifeffit mailing list Ifeffit@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov http://millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/ifeffit
