When doing a multi-export of the same NFS file system on top of GFS, lock recovery will not work correctly - there's no way to prevent a new GFS lock from being taken after a failure but before NFS has sent the lock reclaim notifications, nor is there a way for GFS to respect the NFS lock reclaim grace period. I do not know why you would have this particular problem, though - locks shouldn't randomly "not work at all" just because you take them from a service IP address vs. the host's real IP. Maybe there's some IPtables firewall rule in place ? -- Lon -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
