hi<br>sorry my bad.. the part where I say mounting it in a different path works, was bogus. It turned out my admin mounted another share and mistook it for the same drbd-nfs one...<br><br>so the problem still holds...<br><br>
drdb-nfs mounted on a client is giving me Stale handler error while obtaining lock :(<br><br><br>regards<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 12/20/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Kamran Nisar</b> <<a href="mailto:mkamrannisar@gmail.com">

strangely enough, if i mount the nfs share in a different path, then it works fine. I tried restarting all related services on both client and the server, system reboot as well, changed files as well.. nuthing fixes in this particular directory
<br><br>definately seems like some *voodoo* factor associated with a previous mount/umount session to the same path on the client :| how to get rid of that :( since directory is being used in all the code everywhere, i'd rather fix access through it then create another mount.

Kamran,<br><br>This is purely NFS and not DRBD. What OS and kernel version? There are<br>some flock() issues in RedHat EL 3.x and associated Fedora branches that<br>were fixed between minor releases.<br><br>Darren<br><br>
