The easiest way to see if AIX is using NFSv2, versus NFSv3 or NFSv4 is to check the output of nfsstat -rc. The -r is for rpc information, the -c is for client information (-s would be for AIX as a NFS server).

The NFSv3 and NFSv4 rpc info is Connection oriented based. and NFSv2 - being UDP - is Connectionless oriented

Code:

michael@x071:[/home/michael]nfsstat -rc

Client rpc:
Connection oriented
calls      badcalls   badxids    timeouts   newcreds   badverfs   timers     
8132122    1          1          0          0          0          0          
nomem      cantconn   interrupts 
0          0          0          
Connectionless
calls      badcalls   retrans    badxids    timeouts   newcreds   badverfs   
0          0          0          0          0          0          0          
timers     nomem      cantsend   
0          0          0

Another easy way to see is to start NFS. Depending on your level of AIX you will be able to see NFS stats for NFSv2 and NFSv3 only, or perhaps including NFSv4 - screen excerpt for topas

Code:

NFS (calls/sec)
SerV2         0
CliV2         0
SerV3         0
CliV3       201
SerV4         0
CliV4         0

Hope this helps!
