According to the NFSv4 spec (section 6.1), regarding fs_locations,
On first access of the filesystem, the client should obtain the
value of the fs_locations attribute. If, in the future, the
client finds the server unresponsive, the client may attempt to
use another server specified by fs_locations.
Does any known client actually fail over to another fs_location, as
described here?
I am implementing the server side of this... AFAICT Linux barely uses
fs_locations, and Solaris just crashes.
