Hello,

The latest nfs-utils release drastically changes how the NFS
servers are configured, for the good IMHO...

All daemon  configuration now goes through /etc/nfs.conf.
See nfs.conf(5) for details.

The command line interfaces in the systemd services files
have been removed. Which means all your current configures
will break, because the variables in /etc/sysconfig/nfs are
no longer used.

Again, I think is a move in the right direction and I know
you might find this surprising 8-) but I really don't want to
break all the current server configuration. So I'm trying t
o figure out how to do this with least amount of impact.

Here is what I see as the options

1) Upgrade rawhide w/out a backward compatible patch
    (since it is so early in the release cycle)
    Upgrade f25 with an backwards compatible patch 

2) Upgrade rawhide and f25 with the backward compatible
    patch... but we have to ween ourselves of the command
    line interface at some point...

3) Do nothing and push everything into f27, which is the least
    favorite option.

I'm leaning toward option 1... but I'm asking... so I'm listening. :-)

Also, how do I documented something like this?

tia,

steved.

I'd only ask that the transition only occur in a clean break between OS releases. For those of us managing Puppet, Ansible, etc. it's hard to be adaptive to these things unless there's a good condition we can use. It sounds like all your proposals would achieve that, but I thought I ought mention it anyway.
