I've got a pretty simple Gluster 3.2.5 implementation on RHEL6. One client keeps complaining about 'Stale NFS file handle', even though I have explicitly disabled NFS for all volumes in the environment. I've got 7 volumes on the cluster, and this is the only one actively complaining about the issue. For what it is worth, the clients and servers are the same systems. Any ideas? I saw a few other people reporting the same issue with earlier releases of Gluster, but did not see a solution or further troubleshooting steps.
