Standard value is 0. > NLM (used with NFSv2/v3) works a little differently: instead of the clients polling at regular intervals, the server calls back to the clients to notify them that it has rebooted. But there's still this grace period, which is the length of time the NLM server waits for the clients to act on the notifications by sending lock reclaims. > It affects v4 as well, because the v4 server can't end its grace period before the NLM server does: if it did, v4 clients could rush in and start doing new locks before v2/v3 clients had the chance to reclaim all of theirs. So if I only use NFSv4, I can set this to 1 second? Or would 0 be better? -- 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
