See > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=287411 Well yes... again it is the nature of NFS for as long as I can remember and something always brought up as why AFS was superior. If I remember correctly (which is doubtful) NFS does not guarantee inode consistency between mounts so if a mount goes away and comes back open file descriptors are defined not to work. I believe NFSv4 in a clustered environment works differently but in the case where the client unmounts the partition and there are still open file descriptors.. its the clients problem. [Not sure if NFSv4 worked out local caching to 'fix' this.] > > -- > Orion Poplawski > Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 > NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 > 3380 Mitchell Lane orion@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com > -- > devel mailing list > devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > -- Stephen J Smoogen. “The core skill of innovators is error recovery, not failure avoidance.” Randy Nelson, President of Pixar University.
