Re: NFS failover problem

Hi Maciej,

I'm not sure about these recommendations.  I agree with Peter Kruse's comments about creating a symbolic link for /var/lib/nfs [1 point 4e].  I have multiple NFS services in my cluster each serving a different file system so what would I be soft linking /var/lib/nfs to?

And for the NFS statd recommendation [1 point 4f], again I have several NFS services running on my cluster, each with their own IP alias, so what should I be setting STATD_HOSTNAME to in /etc/sysconfig/network ?

I never had to make either of these changes in my previous NFS server running on a RHEL 3 cluster which worked perfectly.

Thanks.

Paul

Hello,


I suppose that You have problem with NFS lock manager [1 point 4e] or
with NFS statd[1 point 4f].
