Bug 381131 – net-fs/nfs-utils - Permit configuration of rpc.pipefs mount point

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description lgringo 2011-08-30 08:34:55 UTC]

Hi !

When you want to create a high availibity (HA) NFS server (v4) using DRBD and Corosync, tutorial (see http://docs.homelinux.org/doku.php?id=create_high-available_nfs_server_with_pacemaker#installing_nfs) suggest to mount pipefs outside /var/lib/nfs.

/var/lib/nfs will be duplicated by DRBD (in fact, /var/lib/nfs will be linked to as duplicated folder) and pipefs should not.



Reproducible: Always

Hello,

Just found that if I actually move the folder, rpc.idmapd does not start.

I moved the conf into /etc/conf.d/nfs (seems logical) and modify rpc.idmapd init script.

Patch are against nfs-utils 1.2.3-r1
