[LU-4567] NFS exports - The mds_getattr operation failed with -43

Wed, 2 Apr 2014 02:52:04 +0000

Hi,

We are seeing a lot of "timeouts" to the MDS on two round-robin clients/NFS exporters. The issue seems to be unique to going via NFS. I am aware that the "-43" error is related to UID/GID mismatches but I am almost certain that these are correctly configured to be the same everywhere. Even still should the Lustre client essentially disconnect and then return IO errors to the NFS clients for a short period of time if it can't match a UID/GID?

They occur at reasonably regular periods because we have an application that scans various directories every 5 mins over NFS. Looking at the occurrences across both Lustre clients/NFS exporters:

Am am reasonably sure that both the network layer and UID/GIDs are fine.
