I looked around on CentOS 7 - I could not find similar functionality.

According to: http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/linux/features.html delegation support was added to the NFSv4 client in 2.6.9-rc1 and to the NFS server in 2.6.10, so my suspicion is that it's enabled by default. The sysctl you are looking for (on RHEL6 at least) is: [root@snowy-m ~]# sysctl fs.leases-enable fs.leases-enable = 1 So yes, it should be enabled by default in RHEL6 (haven't got any RHEL7 boxes to check).
