The problem we've run into is that occasionally they fail over to the

It is a well known issue in the NFS-TCP failover arena (or more
specifically, for floating IP applications) that failover from server A
to server B, then immediately failing back from server B to A would
*not* work well. IIRC last round of discussing with Red Hat GPS and
support folks, we concluded that most of the applications/users *can*
tolerate this restriction.
Maybe another more basic question: "other than QA efforts, are there
real NFSv2/v3 applications depending on this "feature" ? Or there may
need tons of efforts for something that will not have much usages when
it is finally delivered ?
