Hello!

2 questions about NFS4 "COPY":

1. Does the Linux nfsd require a special setup to allow NFS4 "COPY"
between filesystem exports of the same nfsd, or will that "just work"
out of the box?

2. If a NFS4 client does a "COPY" between exports of the same nfsd, is
it sufficient just to have the stateid of src file and dest file?

This should just work out of the box.

It should be, yes. I did a quick test using the Linux client to Linux server,
and see that's exactly what the client sends the server.

I hope this helps,
