Hi there, I have some queries regarding NFS' implementation of close to open consistency. I hope this is the correct forum. I believe the following to be obviously correct from the various references on the subject: if I open, write a new file on one client, close it and then immediately attempt to open and read the file on another client, I will always see the file as created by the first client (assuming no other intervening actions by other clients). However what if, instead of the second client calling open on the file, it immediately calls just exec (assume the file is an executable)? Presumably at some point in the exec call it is at least implicitly invoking some of the functionality of open but is the above consistency still guaranteed here? Is it only explicit calls to open which maintain the consistency?
