Ok, sorry for not doing a complete RTFM but is there an attribute then for disabling directory caching? > The restore will probably mess with the mtime, in which case you should > probably apply the above commit (applications cannot change the ctime). The odd thing is, that we're seeing sync delays of up to 4-5 hours when doing a restore onto NFS, but also 1-2 hours when doing a backup from NFS (which is then only reads) - the latter is rather odd as in making cache syncs that slow, isn't it? Looks like an overload situation maybe?
