If you create a directory named /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery/, does the problem go away? My guess would be that it's trying to upcall to the new reboot-recovery state daemon, and you don't have that running. Before the addition of that upcall state was kept in /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery. So we decide whether to use the old method or the new one by checking for the existance of that path. But I'm guessing we were wrong to assume that existing setups that people perceived as working would have that path, because the failures in the absence of that path were probably less obvious. --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
