 The "readdir loop" problem seems to be fairly widely known. Try to upgrade your OS, and reboot.
+==== Mount as nobody ====
+Export NFSv4

+</cli>
+FIXME you can have multiple domains: chnfsdom mydom1,mydom2
+===== Performance =====
+If you have a dédicated VLAN for NFS, you can use MTU 9000. All devices must set the MTU to 9000 and network ports to 9216.
+Best proctice for AIX LPAR:
+  * Processing Units: **1.0**
+  * network options
+<cli prompt='#'>
+# no -p -o tcp_sendspace=524288
+# no -p -o tcp_recvspace=524288
+</cli>
+  * nfs options
+<cli prompt='#'>
+[root@testh]/root# nfso -L
+NAME                      CUR    DEF    BOOT   MIN    MAX    UNIT           TYPE
+     DEPENDENCIES
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+nfs_max_read_size         512K   64K    512K   512    512K   Bytes             D

+nfs_max_write_size        512K   64K    512K   512    512K   Bytes             D

+      large_send      yes
+<cli prompt='#'>

+large_send      yes              Request Tx TCP segment offload                   True
+...
+[root@testh]/root# lsattr -El en3
+...
+mtu           9000            Maximum IP Packet Size for This Device        True
+mtu_bypass    on              Enable/Disable largesend for virtual Ethernet True
+state         up              Current Interface Status                      True
+</cli>
+For info, largesend 'll send packet 64k, that 'll be split on VIOS side (hypervisor), when analyse packet, checksum for 64k return FFFF bad checksum, it normal.
+Example of mount options:
+  # mount -o bg,hard,intr,rsize=131072,wsize=131072,timeo=1200,vers=4,sec=sys nfssrv:/nfspath /mnt
+===== NFS ERROR =====
+  * **Mount error**
+<code>
+NFS lookup failed for server : rpc error 7 (RPC: 1832-010 Authentication error) errno 5
+</code>
+Try:
+<cli prompt='#'>
+# nfso -p -o portcheck=1
+# nfso -p -o nfs_use_reserved_ports=1
+</cli>
+  * **Set range ports for NFS**
+Normally, The usage of NFS ports will be dynamically in AIX.... If you would like to set the port ranges,
+The NFS_PORT_RANGE environment variable can be used to limit the source port of network calls the client makes to the server. If used, this environment variable should be added to the **/etc/environment** file. The format of the environment variable is as follows:
+  NFS_PORT_RANGE=udp[4000-5000]:tcp[7000-8000]
