nfs issue

Hello,

I am running RHEL4 AS. /net/hostname is not always accessible. To solve the problem, I restart nfs, nfslock and portmap.

in /var/log/messages, I keep on receiving:
nfs_statfs: statfs error = 116


1] What does the above error mean?
2] any idea why portmap becomes dead?

thanks.

Hi,
I think this error messages happens when you add/modify/remove some entries on /etc/exports. This file requires the reboot of nfs to retrieve its stable state.
On Redhat, I advice to manipulate that file using system-config-nfs or redhat-config-nfs. This will restart nfs in safe mode, ie without need start from scrash.
Good luck.
