How to verify that the NFS server and NFS client are at version 4

Question & Answer


Question

A common mistake when configuring and using MQ multi-instance queue managers is to assume that the NFS server and NFS client are at version 4, which is the required version, but in reality at least one of these components is using version 3. The reason is that the default when creating the NFS stuff, the Version 3 is used (and not the desired Version 4).
.
You want to know how to verify that these NFS component are actually running with version 4 capabilities instead of version 3.
.
Please note:
NFS V3 is NOT supported with MQ multi-instance queue managers.
