Description Maurice Volaski 2008-06-18 18:26:40 UTC
When using nfs with drbd, the network RAID daemon, it's necessary to have nfs data structures on disk in /var/lib/nfs/ mirrored. Generally, this is done by symlinking /var/lib/nfs to a separate mirrored filesystem.

When executing a manual failover, this filesystem must be unmounted, but nfsd has an invisible (at least to lsof) lock on files here. Therefore, the kernel blocks the mount with "device is busy" messages.

To avoid that, the nfs script must release nfsd resources with
rpc.nfsd 0
exportfs -f

See also http://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=121340518108820&w=2

(I'm not certain if rpc.nfsd 16 is required at the restart of the script.)
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2008-06-21 06:26:49 UTC
the "rpc.nfsd 0" stop should already be handled by the ssd, and the exportfs should be handled by the -ua call.

do some testing on your side to see what combinations result in what behavior.
Comment 2 Maurice Volaski 2008-06-21 06:59:08 UTC
I'm not sure what you mean by the "ssd".

I don't know that exportfs -f is truly necessary. When I ran rpc.nfsd 0, it worked and allowed me to unmount the filesystem holding /var/lib/nfs. exportfs -ua seems to be what the script is supposed to do and if that is indeed the case, it's not enough. rpc.nfsd 0 is not getting called. 
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2008-06-21 10:01:25 UTC
exportfs and stopping nfsd are two separate issues

there is already a call right before the exportfs that kills the nfsd daemons

you need to try the different combinations in the init.d script and report the results.  no one else is reporting these issues you are.
Comment 4 Maurice Volaski 2008-06-21 20:37:37 UTC
I'm not sure what you mean by try different combinations. Of what?

From what I can tell executing /etc/init.d/nfs stop doesn't do much of anything. 

After the call, the output of ps ax | grep nfs is
11843 ?        S<     0:00 [nfsd4]
11845 ?        S      0:00 [nfsd]

then the question is why ... it works just fine for me (and apparently many other people)

you didnt post `emerge --info` as the bug reporting page says you're supposed to.  please rectify this.

Comment 7 Emil Beinroth 2008-10-28 23:18:20 UTC
This is probably related to http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=243088.
Replacing the ssd --stop --name nfs line in /etc/init.d/nfs with the mentioned "rpc.nfsd 0" works for me. And according to the other bug, --name is kind of a hack anyways .. so avoiding it could be a good idea.
Comment 8 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2009-01-31 22:19:17 UTC
calling both is pretty easy
