Sounds like you were using nfs, which ought to work. 1. Make sure lsof doesn't show any open files for that directory. 2. Make sure the directory itself isn't being exported via nfs. 3. Make sure there aren't hidden files via ls -a 4. Make sure there aren't any kernel errors on the GFS2 server in dmesg 5. Try doing rmdir on the gfs2 server to see if it works.
