Hi Bruce, Trond. As you know, Currently umount results in busy on NFS server although user tried to succeed to umount on NFS client. I suggest to add umount procedure to avoid umount busy issue. When calling umount on NFS client, The resources(exportfs entries cache) of mount point will be flushed on NFS server. and umount will be succeed without busy issue. how do you think about this suggestion ?
