Note that the copy does work correctly. This depends on the NFS Server setup. If your NFS server uses async mode any copy is completed on the client as soon as the server has all data. Something similar is possible with async on client side. For details see man pages of exports (for server side) and nfs (for client side). Async mode has a risc of loosing data and not knowing it. If in async mode either the server or client crashes the data is inconsisten (wheras the file may be consistent).
