Which two statements about Oracle Direct Network File System (NFS) are true? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. It bypasses the OS file system cache. E. Oracle Disk Manager can manage NFS on its own, without using the operating system kernel. Direct NFS provides faster performance that what can be provided by the operating system's NFS driver as Oracle bypasses the operating system and generates exactly the requests it needs (no user configuration or tuning required).

Explanation

Direct NFS provides faster performance that what can be provided by the operating system's NFS driver as Oracle bypasses the operating system and generates exactly the requests it needs (no user configuration or tuning required). Data is cached just once in user space, which saves memory (no second copy in kernel space). Performance is further improved by load balancing across multiple network interfaces (if available).
