The NFSv4 lease-time configuration interface we currently have doesn't actually allow setting the grace period directly. Mostly this is noticed by developers trying to set a smaller grace period to speed testing. However, it also makes it difficult to make reboot-recovery behavior correct, since there's no way for userland to force the kernel to observe the correct grace period on reboot if the previous server was using something other than the default lease time. So, add a grace-period setting interface as well. Note if you actually want a shorter grace period you'll also need to adjust the nlm_grace_period sysctl (/proc/sys/fs/nfs/nlm_grace_period), since the server doesn't end grace until both have expired. --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
